If you’re diving into a big block Chevy build, you’re gonna want to take a close look at this ARP 235-4201 12-point head stud kit. Seriously, these aren’t just any bolts; they’re made from 8740 chromoly, which means they’re tough as nails and built to handle some serious power. You can trust they won’t let you down when you’re pushing your engine to the limits.

The head style is a slick 12-point design, which not only looks good but also gives you better grip when you’re torquing them down. No undercut studs here—just solid, reliable fasteners that are ready to keep your heads snugly in place. Plus, they come with washers, so you don’t have to scramble to find the right ones when you’re in the middle of your build. Everything’s included, and it’s all black oxide finished, which not only adds a nice touch but also helps resist corrosion.

One thing to keep in mind: these studs are cut to fit, which means you won’t have to worry about any modifications. They’re designed to work seamlessly with your big block setup. If you’re looking for durability and performance without the fuss, this kit is a solid choice. Just make sure your application is right, and you’ll be set for whatever your engine has in store.

The Story Behind ARP Bolts

ARP (Automotive Racing Products) was founded by Gary Holzapfel in 1968 when he noticed his drag-racing friends succumbing to bolt-induced engine failure as a result of poor-quality fasteners. He drew upon his expertise in the aerospace industry to develop a solution, which turned into a successful business nonetheless. 

Since its inception, ARP has been engineering and perfecting a wide range of bolts, studs, nuts, and other fasteners for engines, cylinder heads, headers, wheels, and transmissions. Today, ARP remains the undisputed world leader in automotive fasteners. Racing aficionados everywhere know and recognize the ARP brand and can vouch for its quality.

What Makes ARP Bolts So Special?

Located in Ventura, California, all ARP processes from raw wire to finished fasteners are conducted in-house, right here in the USA. The company continually improves its processes with strict quality control guidelines and is dedicated to producing products that are second to none. Simply put, ARP Bolts are better than the competition because of their quality materials and advanced processes. 

ARP prides itself on using only top-quality materials that are above the usual “aerospace-grade” quality that other manufacturers settle for. For example, while 8740 Chromoly steel has four different grades, ARP only uses the top two, SDF and CHQ. These grades cost twice as much as the lower commercial and aircraft grades, but deliver “zero defect” quality that you can trust each and every time.

ARP Bolts are built to withstand serious racing, possess greater tensile strengths, and can survive higher stress levels than most aircraft fasteners. ARP is dedicated to creating fasteners that boast ultimate strength and durability to ensure they last race after race. Its product lineup ranges from quality high-performance OEM parts to exotic specialty hardware for IndyCar, NASCAR, NHRA drag racing, Formula 1, and even marine applications.
