if you're buying new bolts anyway, go with the ARP studs. They're reusable unlike torque to yield bolts and they're a lot stronger.

I use ARP head, main, and rod bolts on my honda race engine, I don't know anybody in the scene that's ever had any problems with them. They can take just about anything.

if you can afford them, yes. They allow a lot more clamping power, get them and a good HG and maybe you wont have to worry as much about that 6 cylinder eating head gaskets like fat kids eat cake
