ARP Bolts ARP Chevy Hex Distributor Stud Kit, Steel, Black Oxide Finish, Sold Individually
$3.95

If you’re diving into a project that involves your Chevy distributor, let me tell you, the ARP Chevy Hex Distributor Stud Kit (130-1702) is a solid choice. This isn’t just any fastener; it’s designed specifically for those who want reliability and performance under the hood.

First off, the stud design is a game changer. Unlike standard bolts, these studs provide a more secure fit, which is crucial when you’re dealing with the vibrations and heat that come with engine performance. And let’s be real, nobody wants to worry about a loose distributor while they’re out on the road.

Made from high-quality steel, these studs are built to last. The black oxide finish not only looks sleek but also adds a layer of protection against corrosion. That means you can trust them to hold up even in less-than-ideal conditions. Plus, the hex head style makes it easy to get a good grip when you're tightening things down. You won't be fumbling around with a wrench trying to get a decent angle.

And here’s the kicker: they’re sold individually, so you can grab just what you need for your setup without having to buy a whole kit. It’s perfect for those of us who like to keep things simple and efficient.

In short, if you’re looking for a reliable, durable, and easy-to-use distributor stud, the ARP kit is worth considering. It’s a small part that can make a big difference in your engine’s performance. Trust me, once you’ve got these in place, you’ll feel a little more confident every time you hit the gas.

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.
