Default ARP Head Studs - enough room to pull heads in car

Trying to decide between ARP head studs or bolts.

Does anyone know for sure if there is enough room to pull heads with motor in the car with ARP head studs? If not, that would make my decision quicker!

Any other input on which I should use? Nitrous possible down the road a good ways and head porting too.

Another "can do" vote....

I did a head/cam swap with the engine in the car and head studs in the block.

People just can't get over (me included) how much room there is in f-bodies when you get those coil packs/valve covers/headers out of there.

yeah....they are stronger, easier to work with, and make locating the heads easier.
