They cost a bit more than that they worked out half the price of the ARP for a compelte set when I built my stroker, maybe the diesel ones are more expensive.
ARP main studs or OEM?

Bolt part number is the same for gas and diesel block. And you don't have to buy them from the "stealer", you can just use universal M10x80 10.9 bolts.

Actually you do need 2 of the shorter ones too, in order to prevent crushing the oil gallery check valve. From a previous post:

"NOTE: It is possible to crush the check valve when installing the No. 3 main cap bolt without the cap or a main cap stud, e.g. an ARP stud that is too long. This can result in the check valve ball being unable to return to its seat when the engine is off. This allows the oil to drain down out of the head when the engine is off. As result, this will lead to wear issues on the camshaft during the period of rotation before the engine oil is again pumped back up into the head. Cam follower ("lifter") performance might also be impacted or compromised by this damaged check valve.
Here is a photo showing both a damaged and a good check valve. You can see how the valve body has been crushed on the valve on the left:

Thank you! I know this! I can make 1 olt shorter with 10mm or something. I ordered 1 set and they are too short. Iff i screw them in maximum, i barely succeed to fit the nut without washer. I need the longer version and i will cut 1 bolt the correct lenght to keep the check valve intact.Actually you do need 2 of the shorter ones too, in order to prevent crushing the oil gallery check valve.
