anyone blown heads after ARP's

Ok, I've got brand new cylinder heads, gaskets and ARP head studs. Have any of you had head gasket issues after ARP studs? I don't plan on adding much more than my Flashpaq 1805 and maybe custom tunes down the road.

I've heard of one person here doing it. I think they were installed wrong though.

Since you have new cylinder heads, as long as the block is flat and true, with the new heads, gaskets, and studs, you shouldn't have any problems.

i doubt it man! I'm not going to say it won't, but it's highly unlikely if they were installed properly. That's the only reason I could think of would be a bunk installation. Otherwise, tune away!!

I have not had any problem, or have I heard of anyone with problems.

I hope not. I just had studs put in at my Ford dealer when I had a bedplate gasket replaced under warranty.
