Default Is there a stud kit for the header bolts?

When I installed my headers, the cheap Hooker bolts that came with were sloppy and because of fitment issues I had to remove and reinstall several times to get all the header-frame clearance correct.

Basically two threads came of with the header bolt on one of the holes. I put the factory bolts in. I have to take the headers of again and I don't want to strip that hole. I want to put studs in so I won't end up taking the heads off to helicoil.

Any suggestions? Links?

I know ARP makes a stud kit. I've been thinking of getting it. I wonder if Stage 8 makes one, I've always like their kits. I'll check around and chime back in.

Thanks. I'm not ready to upgrade my heads yet. I don't want to take the stock ones off unless I'm putting ported ones back on.
