I plan to install ARP 2000 head studs. The engine currently has 25k miles and I'm wondering if it's necessary to replace the head gasket at the same time?
I assume it's best practice to remove all the studs, replace the gasket and reinstall the heads tightening down at 85 ft/lbs using Ford's torque pattern. Is that what everybody's doing?
Does anybody have the correct part number for the ARP 2000 Head Stud Kit?
