I just recieved a set from Alper yesterday, they look to be a nice set. They were 65 shipped, and only took a couple days to get here.

Let us know how the install goes. Curious on quality, especially the ends. $65 shipped is really hard to beat for a set of 'quality' head studs! =)

Heres a couple, my camera is not the best. The threads look good, they thread into the block just right, not loose just a nice smooth fit with no slop.

I noticed that a 3/16 fits them just right. And they should be installed finger tight.
