can anyone tell what studs to go with cost is a problem the cheapest set so for is 425 (this was a cost i forgot about)and is o-ring head gasket resurface and the firering for 1200 reasnable and the studs i would really be thank for some help

 

I'd try the ARP studs with the stock HG first. Why O-ring if you don't need it?

You could probably get 60psi to hold with just more clamp load.

I am using my stock headbolts with a stoch gasket ans an o-ringed head. Holding 80psi on hard runs.

 

Those prices are good...almost too good. Will you also get your head decked? Arp Studs appear to be the lattest & greatest...worth some extra money.
Firerings got some bad press due to failures...which I believe was due to poor installing...not poor product!
Cutting the groove precisely with the proper depth, using mfg template...as opposed to just using the hand tool is very important, IMO. I would want someone who had done several before mine with a successful track record...unless I know them very well.
If money is tight, I would go with either option mentioned above, with quality job of leveling your head.
Just my $.02

 

thank you all very much right know i still have the stock head gasket i havn't finish putting the twins on so not sure how much boost i will make where the breaking point at

 

Hey Ryan, whats the protrusion on your rings? I am thinkin about doin that with my PSD, coppers aint cuttin the mustard.

 

Thats a question better asked to J.R Adkins. He took care of the o-ring portion of the job, I was involde in the dis-assemble and re-assembly but not the o-ringing itself. You can get ahold of him at 317-281-3130
