Default ARP headbolts for nitrous use?

Here is the scenario: ARE 360 shortblock, big nitrous friendly cam, 200 wetshot.
I went ahead and used high pressure head gaskets from ARE and ARP headbolts to try to keep everything together. Do you think that is going to work OK or will the heads probably lift? I didn't get ARP head studs so I am wondering. Even if I did get the studs and saw some really large gains on the juice I might wonder if it will hold together. What do you think?

I really don't think a 200 shot on a 360ci is going to lift the heads. I think if it was a 300 shot then it might be close.

I sure hope so. I just want to get as many horses as I can reliably out of this setup and be happy for a while <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Actually there are very few ppl right now that are at the power level that they have to worry about lifting the heads. I would juice a 200 shot on yours and not worry about it.
