Default cheapest place to buy arp head studs?

what kind of prices have you guys seen around? the cheapest i've found is like 115 shipped. how about the golden eagle 'hd' headstuds, they're a tad cheaper, how do they compare to the arp's if any of you have had experience with them? ------- blew my hg, guess that's what i get for reusing my gasket with copper spray and reusing my oem head bolts :P

try lightningmotorsports.com, 89+ship for d series, which of course is the only real engine out there. none of that splitting your camshaft in two nonsense.

Talk to 88turbocrx. He just got his re-sale number for his upcoming site www.lsdmotorsports.com (ahhh, the shameless plug). He's connected with a few wholesale warehouses.

whenever i bought mine i didn't want to go through somebody who knows somebody, and i didn't want to deal with ebay or anything so the cheapest i found, (granted this was a couple years ago) was summitracing.com especially if you live close to the store (im in pa), i'm fairly certain the d16z6 fits d16a6, but it was that or d16y8, i can't remember, but i'm not sure what motor your using anyways

edit: just reread stealths post and i thought he said the guy knew somebody who had connections, so you might want to try him

for a b16, from what i've seen, the b series are around 30-40 dollars more than the d series :P nobody has any experience with the ge head studs? i don't see why they wouldn't be just as good if not better?

well i've always heard good things about arp, and they way they are made makes me feel better...

i've never heard of anybody using ge head studs, and i really didn't even know they made them... but when it comes down to it, wouldn't you rather spend the extra money to get a brand with a good reputation, this isn't something like a poster where it doesn't really matter if its a 100 dollar brand or a .50 poster
