Product Description

Dominate high boost with the ARP 247-4205 Custom Age 625+ Head Stud Set for the 1994–1998 5.9L Cummins 12-valve. Engineered for extreme cylinder pressures, these studs deliver massive, repeatable clamping force to keep head gaskets sealed on hard-working tow rigs and high-horsepower street/strip builds. Each stud is cold-forged for superior grain flow, heat-treated prior to thread rolling, and paired with hardened parallel-ground washers and 12-point nuts for accurate torque and even load distribution. Install once—drive with confidence.
