$67.45

If you're diving into the world of building or upgrading your small block Chevy, you've got to check out this ARP SB Chevy 12pt Oil Pan Stud Kit. Trust me, this isn't just any ordinary fastener kit; it's designed with some serious thought behind it.

First off, let's talk materials. These studs are made from high-quality steel and finished with a black oxide coating. That means they’re not just tough; they also resist corrosion, which is a big deal when you’re dealing with oil and all the grime that comes with it. You want your engine to stay clean and leak-free, and these studs help make that happen.

The fastener style is stud, which is great because it makes installation a breeze. You won’t be wrestling with nuts and bolts; just screw these in and you’re good to go. Plus, the standard 12-point nut style means you get a solid grip when you’re tightening things down. No slipping here!

Oh, and did I mention the washers are included? That’s a nice touch. It saves you a trip to the hardware store and ensures you’ve got everything you need right out of the box.

So if you're looking to secure your oil pan with confidence, this ARP kit is a solid choice. It’s reliable, tough, and designed specifically for the small block Chevy setup. You’ll appreciate the peace of mind that comes with a job well done. Get ready to hit the road without worrying about leaks!

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.
