ARP B18C1 VTEC 12-Point Head Stud Kit
Improve cylinder-head clamping strength on your Acura B18C1 VTEC engine with the ARP 208-4303 head stud kit. Designed for the 1994–2001 Acura Integra GS-R, this kit replaces the factory cylinder-head fasteners with high-strength ARP studs, 12-point nuts, and hardened washers.
The studs are manufactured from heat-treated 8740 chrome-moly steel for dependable strength and fatigue resistance in performance engine applications. The stud design also helps improve cylinder-head and head-gasket alignment during assembly.
This kit is suitable for naturally aspirated, high-RPM, turbocharged, supercharged, and nitrous-assisted B18C1 engine builds where increased cylinder pressure can place additional load on the factory head fasteners.
