[Vwdiesel] ARP head studs

[Gary Shea]

I recently looked into ARP studs, am planning on getting some but
haven't yet.  I'm writing because I got the kit number from a posting to
this list, can't remember who now.  The number they gave was 2514701,
which is listed as "Cosworth Ford Escort", and is a 12mm stud, 1.75mm
thread pitch, 5.400" long.  I called and asked if it was really the
right part and ARP said to "check the size and if it fits use it".  I'm
not sure about the length yet.

There's another data point for you...

Let me/us know how it goes!
