ARP Main Stud Kits for your Honda/Acura are exactly what you need for that extra protection your bottom-end is in need of. Suggested use in high horsepower turbo and nitrous vehicles, however, some hardcore enthusiasts with naturally aspirated builds use ARP main stud kits for that added insurance and piece of mind.
All ARP Main Stud Kits come complete with hardened parallel-ground washers and high quality nuts. ARP recommends the use of main studs over main cap bolts whenever possible for several key reasons. First is the ability to obtain more accurate torque readings because studs don’t “twist” into the block. All clamping forces are on one axis. By the same token, there is less force exerted on the block threads, which contributes to improved block life (very critical on aluminum blocks). Finally, there are factors of easier engine assembly and proper alignment of the cylinder block-to-main caps every time.
