Im on ARPs website and trying to figure out which set of instructions I should use. Would it be the LS1, LS2, or what. I see one with 90ft lbs for M11 bolts and 28 ft lbs for M8 bolts. I also set a set saying 80ft lbs and 25ft lbs.

 

It depends on your part number. There is a section where it will give you the instructions for your specific kit if you enter in the part number.

 

If your engine is 2003 and earlier, the kit you should be using is 134-3609.

If your engine is 2004 and later, the kit you should be using is 134-3610.

BOTH kits call for torque ratings of 75 & 25 ft lbs.

 

I checked the instructions for both those part numbers but it says thats for head bolts. I have head studs, would it be the same or different?

Sorry about that. I just reread my caption for the thread and I did put head bolts. Thats my fault. I just corrected it

 

With those other part numbers I realized that the instructions are exactly the same so I thought I would compare all the instructions for head studs. SB Chevy LS1 pro-series hex
Head Stud Kit 234-411, SB Chevy LS1 pro-series thru '03 12pt Head Stud Kit 234-4316, andSB Chevy LS1 pro-series '04 12pt Head Stud Kit 234-4317 all have the same instructions and torque values. So I think its safe to say no matter what kit I have I should be good. Sorry for being a dumb *** guys lol. Thanks again for your help

 

ARP also makes heads studs in different materials, which could affect the torque value. The ARP 2000 material is silver in color and gets a higher torque. L19 is another material, gold in color, and is even higher in torque value. Each of those will be a different kit PN.
