If you're working on a 1993-2002 Ford 7.3L Power Stroke Diesel, you know how crucial it is to have reliable head studs. Let’s talk about the ARP 250-4201 Head Stud Kit. This isn't just any kit; it's built to handle the serious demands of your engine while keeping everything snug and secure.
First off, these studs are made from 8740 chromoly steel, which means they’re tough as nails. You won't have to worry about them stretching or failing under pressure. The black oxide finish not only looks sleek but also helps prevent corrosion, so you can count on them for the long haul.
The kit comes with 12-point head style fasteners, which makes installation easier, especially in tight spots. And yes, they include washers, so you’ve got everything you need right out of the box. Just to clarify, this kit is not cut to fit, but it’s designed specifically for your Power Stroke, ensuring a perfect fit without any guesswork.
What’s even better? This setup is a solid choice if you’re planning to push your engine’s limits, whether that’s for towing heavy loads or just wanting a bit more power on the road. The added strength means you can crank up the boost without worrying about blowing a head gasket.
In short, if you want to keep your 7.3L running strong and reliable, the ARP Head Stud Kit is a no-brainer. It's one of those parts that you’ll be glad you invested in when you’re under the hood. Solid performance, easy installation, and built to last—what more could you ask for?

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.
