ARP Bolts ARP Holden 308 V8 Main Stud Kit 2-Bolt Fasteners with Nuts and Washers - 205-5401

If you're diving into a build with a Holden 308 V8, you’re probably already aware that the heart of your ride deserves the best. That’s where the 205-5401 ARP Holden 308 V8 Main Stud Kit comes into play. This isn’t just some run-of-the-mill fastener kit; it’s designed to give you the reliability and strength you need for serious performance.

  • 2-bolt main style: This setup is what you want for a solid foundation. It keeps everything in place, especially when you’re pushing the limits.
  • Stud fastener style: Studs are the way to go if you’re looking for a secure fit. They’re easier to work with when you’re assembling and disassembling your engine.
  • Standard hex nut style: No fancy stuff here—just reliable, easy-to-find nuts that get the job done without fuss.
  • No windage tray compatibility: Just a heads up—this kit isn’t designed for use with a windage tray. If you’re running one, you’ll need to look elsewhere.
  • Fastener yield strength: We’re talking 200,000 psi here. That’s some serious strength, which means you can crank up the power without worrying about things letting go.
  • Nuts and washers included: You won’t have to scramble to find the right hardware. Everything you need is right in the kit.

This stud kit is a game changer for anyone looking to beef up their Holden 308 V8. It’s built for those who know that every detail counts, especially when you’re aiming for that perfect balance of power and reliability. Trust me, when you're out on the track or just cruising, you’ll appreciate the peace of mind that comes with knowing your engine is held together with top-notch hardware.

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.
