ARP Head Stud will not come out?!?!? I have one ARP Head Stud that will not come out... all the others come out by hand using an allen wrench.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Is the special tool made to remove head studs that have seized???

You can try putting two nuts on the stud and tighten them together. Then using a wrench on the lower nut and turning it the top nut will keep it from loosing and the stud should turn. Good Luck

Verdad Gallardo Actually, the best tool I found was the Snap-on stud extractor, will not damage threads and works great. Just not sure on the ARP studs as they are rolled threads but it should work OK.
