Default arp main stud kit necessary?

if i am pushing 500rwhp n/a and perhaps 700rwhp on nitrous at a later date, is the arp main stud kit necessary when getting a 408?

Not necessary to have, but it is a good thing to have. The main studs are just a much better quality fastener than the stock main bolts.

I havent heard of it happening but the studs are a good piece of mind and the big plus is that they are endlessely reusable.
