Head bolts
 
Heads are going back on the stock 87 block and I need new bolts, well that is the advice out there online anyway. I would like to use the ARP bolt kit 154-3601 but they do not provide the 2 pass side studded bolts to secure the fuel line bracket. LMR carries a stock STYLE kit but it's china stuff and nowhere as strong as the ARP bolts. What does this group suggest, I can't be the first with this issue. Clean up and reuse the original bolts or?

I recently had the engine on my 1988 WSP SSP rebuilt. It had 174,xxx on it. My engine builder is someone I've known for years. I wanted to use the factory head bolts with the stud(s) also. He said since I wasn't using a power adder I could still used the factory head bolts. I haven't had any issues with them yet. Late Model Restoration (LMR) does sell a set with the 2 studs. It's part number LRS-302HB $37.99.
