Are ARP head bolts enough?
Hey all,
I'm working on a D1-SC build on a 346ci LS1 with forged pistons and rods. I'm planning on 12-14psi. Currently, I have a set of ARP head bolts. Will these be sufficient, or do I need to upgrade to studs?
Also, as a side note, do you think stock 241 heads will stand up to that after having been milled .040"?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply.
Do you think the heads are okay after being milled? I hear the deck thickness can be an issue on heads lifting, and I'm just concerned about it.
