The long studs in their kit do not appear to be arp. Has anyone else had a problem the the studs they are using? Now even when I get a new one I am suspicious of their quality.

The 2 number 5 studs that use the stock length studs are arp. My own girdle that came from another supplier had all arp studs. The guy that owns the engine was going to call mancini today.
