Yes you are gonna need studs for a 2G block. The 1G studs are 12mm and the 2G studs are 11mm. You need the 11mm. Im not sure if the extra mm of space will make a difference when tightening down the 1G head to the 2G block but youll have to pay attention and find out. I would imagine it would work jus fine. I havent seen or heard of anyone else having a problem w/ ARP studs other than them being the wrong size or jus needing to know installation instructions. Happy Modding

yep use the 2g studs and the 1mm of space won't hurt anything.
