ARP don't make them I see that I could use the Jetta 1.8/2.0 ODHC one but they could be short. How much shorter than the OEM ZC ones?

tks for your help

 

about a 1/4 of a inch.. see if they have them for the d16a1

 

a d series stud will work

 

Not unless you want the studs hitting the camshafts? lol

Single cam D-series head studs are longer, and will not work.

they migt hit, but i dont think so

 

Ok, take it from someone that has done it... like myself, lol

Trust me, they are to long, the bolts are damn near 1 1/4 inchs longer than the normal ZC/D16a1 Studs. If you want to be a hard-headed newb, I shall post some pictures for you.

ok i realize that it wont work after thinking about it.

 

Is ti really dramatic to have them 1/4 shorter?

 

Still want to know the answer please

 

If you are so worried about it, why don't you just get the D16A6 ones and hack off the extra 1.25inches.
