The second problem is that at least one row of head studs are too short. 2 to 3 threads are not engaged in the nut.
The studs you talk about....LOL when I saw that on mine, I called ARP they told me they were the correct length. I told them ...NO they are too short. I just ordered the correct length individually. YOu wonder how they sell a "set:" that has 10? that are a lil too short.
What was the length supplied, and what length was needed? Pic for example:
