This ARP2000 Head Stud Kit 203-4705 is designed for the turbocharged inline 6-cylinder B58 engines found in varias BMW chassis and the Toyota GR Supra A90/A91.Ā  As you increase the power output of your engine beyond its factory specifications, the head and block may start to separate, causing factory bolts to stretch and fail. ARP Head Studs are stronger than factory bolts, ensuring your race engine stays together even under extreme conditions.Ā 

The Custom Age 625+ optionĀ 203-4706Ā is made from ARP's 625+Ā material that has a tensile strength ofĀ 260 ksi, substantially higher than the 190 ksi of the ARP 2000 head stud. It's an ideal choice for individuals who want to push the limits of their B58Ā builds and require a stronger head stud.

Our Oversized Kit option utilizes ARP's proprietary Custom Age 625+ material option combined with specialized insert washers for ultra-high boost applications. Please note that this kit requires that the cylinder head be clearanced and the engine block to be machined for the installation of insert washers. Don't have a machine shop up to the job? Submit your engine to 5150 AutoSport for our B58 Oversized Stud Installation Service.

Installation Instructions:Ā 

1. To ensure proper thread engagement and accurate torque readings, clean ALL threads in the block. Chase if necessary with ARP Thread Chaser.
2. Clean and inspect all hardware prior to installation. Look for obvious defects or shipping damages, plus proper fit, length and dimension.
3. If the cylinder head studs protrude into a water jacket, lubricate the block threads of the studs with ARP THREAD SEALER.
4. Screw studs into the block ā€œHAND TIGHT ONLYā€.
5. Install the cylinder head(s) and check for binding or misalignment.
6. Lubricate the stud threads, nuts and washers with ARP ULTRA-TORQUE FASTENER ASSEMBLY LUBRICANT.
Then install the washers and the nuts onto the studs and tighten them hand tight.
ARP recommends using the ARP ULTRA-TORQUE FASTENER ASSEMBLY LUBRICANT that is provided with each kit as opposed to motor oil. This is due to higher friction on the studs as well as inconsistencies in the clamping force of the fasteners when motor oil or other low quality lubricants are used.

Please note: After initial assembly, it is necessary to allow the engine to complete a full heat cycle, then re-torque your head studs to spec. This means allowing the engine to warm up to its normal operating temperature, remain at operating temperature for several minutes to ensure each component is uniformly heated, then turned off and cooled completely to ambient temperature.
