Default ARP Head Studs

Where did some of you guys buy ARP head studs for a 6.5 from?? I was tryin to find them cheaper than what heath sells them for?? Also is there anywhere I can get some tougher head gaskets??

I've got a 95 6.5 and I was wondering how much difference an intercooler would make.

alright summit racing sells ARP headstuds and you need to get Fel Pro gaskets for tougher. as far as an intercooler you can buy a really expensive one or fab up one for cheap. they do work if you are towing extremely heavy loads but from what else you have been posting it seems like you want more power so i would buy a A Team Turbo which will have the same cooling affects as a intercooler but will also give you more power. ity is the best turbo for the 6.5 yet

Most of the vendors here can get you ARP studs. contact me or one of the others.

Check out water meth for your non inter cooled truck. It will help you out and be less than $450
