Product Description
LOCK DOWN YOUR 6.0L: ARP 250-4202 HEAD STUD KIT — When boost and EGTs climb, stock TTY head bolts tap out. The ARP 250-4202 kit replaces them with ARP2000® studs and 12-point nuts for consistent clamping under heavy load and tuning. Expect superior gasket retention, repeatable torque, and long-term reliability for your 2003–2007 Ford 6.0L Powerstroke.
- Engineered Strength: ARP2000® material with premium heat treat and rolled threads after heat-treat for fatigue resistance.
