yes ,it tells you on the supplyed box.you have to work out what diameter or thread they are and check against the packaging..i had the same probs with my head studs..let me know if you have no box and the size as i have my old box somewhere

Thanks Jamo, just to confirm this is for the crank bearing caps, not the head studs?

Cheers,

ARP Head studs are different they are torqued to 20 / 40 / 60 ft lb in the factory sequence and then retorqued after a heat cycle.

There is a Guy running a aluminum block that has them torqued to 110ftlbs so i have heard!

i was led to believe the crank studs were same as the head studs..as they must be the same material..also i have heard fiesta head studs have been used for the crank aswell??
