Default Head Studs
I got my 97 dodge ram 12 valve, and it has 35 lbs of boost, timing advanced by 17 degrees, sun coast torque converter and valve body, rebuilt tranny, with 179xxx miles. I have read so many conflicting view on head studs. Basically, I need this truck to last me a long time, and should I invest in aftermarket head studs to prevent blowing a head gasket? I don't plan on drag racing or anything like that, but I will be trailering it and working it.
