Just got some from a well known motorsport company, but the head stud kit box had been opened and re-sealed with sellotape.

Also the head studs or bolts dont have ARP marked on them anywhere.

Just curious, as they will be used in a £3k engine build.

they dont say ARP anywhere on the stud kits, not that I have ever seen.

we often open boxes to check parts for customers, especially things like this that could make or break an engine!

as long as the threads are ok and the pack has the lube, nuts, washers, studs and instructions they will be fine.
