Well to make a long story short I overtightened and ruined two 8mm ARP head studs when putting on my heads. Does anyone know where I can buy two loose fasteners? The part number is AFG2.5502-1LGB - I also need an ARP crank bolt and possibly the oil pump stud kit.

I put this in the forced induction section because I thought the majority of the head stud users were FI people.

Thanks, -Dave

Why wouldn't you just call ARP directly? I'm pretty confident that no vendor is going to have them by the piece.

I ended up loosing one stud, and called up ARP. They asked me were I purchased them from, and some other info, and were glad to send me out a new one. They just asked I pay for shipping.

I've called ARP before and told them that their bolt stripped when I had one strip and they sent me a single new bolt for free no questions asked. They didnt even want the old one to prove it..

Geez this is rediculous.... I called ARP and they told me to buy two new studs from Jegs or Summit. I called Jegs and Summit and they said they could special order me one and get it to me in 10 days to 2 weeks. I am calling ARP back and asking for two free ones... hopefully they will send them to me. Maybe it was just me but I thought the directions that came with the studs were a little vague and confusing anyway...

Just wanted to let you guys know that I followed up with ARP again. I called them, explained what happened and that I had over $500 worth of ARP fasteners in my engine (main and head studs, rod bolts) and they are shipping me two new studs free of charge. Awesome! Hats off to ARP... way to come through with the customer service!

be glad you stripped a stud. I stripped out my block when I installed my stud kit . Ended up having to drop the engine and drill out my block to repair it. I wont go into more detail, Ill just say it sucked
