    New ARP rocker arm stud bolt?

     



    I am looking at a set, why are some shorter than the others? The lengths of the rocker studs are not all the same?

    The longer studs are for use with a stud girdle.

    All of the studs in a complete set should be the same length....

    Damn ,I knew this, just thought ,just maybe it did not matter. My fault for not checking before I installed them.Reminds me of what my Dad always said.Don't take some one elses word for it ,check it your self. Just cause it comes new in the box does not mean its right.Anyways this pisses me off.Long part is on top.
