Does anyone have the correct part # for the ARP HEAD STUDS for a LS6 block-I beleive these require different studs than the earlier blocks? I prefer a regular hex head nut versus the 12 point-but please give me both anyway. Any advantages to a 12 point? I tried searching but couldn't find it-thanks guys!

 

I don't have the part number offhand, but it only requires a different part number for the 2004 blocks. All 2003 and earlier LS1 & LS6 use the same studs

#234-4317 ALL STUDS SAME LENGTH. PRO SERIES ONLY, 12 PNT.

 

I need these as well....SDPC has them for $229.

They are $253 everywhere else.

Let me know if you find a better price

I think they only come in 12 pt.

 

The advantage to 12 point studs is that there is less room for error or slip with a 12-point socket. Therefore, more accurate torque readings. How much more accurate? I'm not sure. I'm going with 6-point myself tho.

 

Mid year 2004 was the change.
