arp head stud question

[Hooah]

Ok heres the deal, i just got a 6 bolt with a blown oil pump....so i figure to stick the 1g head on....the 6 bolt came with arp head studs and i was wondering if i could put them into the 7 bolt with 6 bolt head? ive searched and came up with nothing, i have everything else just need to know this thanks

Nope. Won't fit. 6 bolt motors use 12mm studs, 7 bolt motors have 11mm studs.

You would have to clearance the head stud passages then it would fit.

That's good advice for getting a 7 bolt head to fit on a 6 bolt block. The way I interpreted the original post was that he was putting a 6 bolt head on a 7 bolt block.

If you were REALLY intent on doing it, maybe you could find a machine shop that would retap the stud holes in the block to 12mm and then use 12mm arp studs for the head.
