I am getting ready to install my Edelbrock aluminum heads. What is best. Bolts or studs? 440 motor. Was thinking ARP studs but looking for advice. Thank you.

If your using the RPM heads stock bolts work fine, I do add harden head bolt washers to them though work up
Summit offers several replacement kits, make sure they come with the washers for the aluminum heads also scope
