I'd go with them... known too many friends who have snapped stock head bolts off in the block. Go with the ARP bolts for insurance.

ok thanks. the guy that is going to bore my block said if i was going to run the arp bolts or studs that i need to bring them with the block to torque the deck plate. because i guess the arp stuff can tweak the block more than the stock bolts because they more clamp force. oh and does 300-350 sound right for a bore and hone job with ls1 deck plate? going .007 for my 383 kit.
