I need a little help here, I'm assuming the ARP head studs are not re-usable, correct? I need to know this before I order another set. Also, what is the chevy application that we can use?
 
ARP head studs are reusable infinitively....

Chevy 2.8 V6 head studs. Search and you'll find a good amount of info.
 
Since I will likely need to buy these soon, why do people recommend the Chevy 2.8 ones? Are they a better fit than the ones made for the SC?
 
#233-4303 head studs for Chevy 2.8 run quite a bit cheaper than the SC version and they are a prefect fit. Early stock of the SC version were a tad too long and needed to be grinded down to allow the exhaust manifold to clear. The Chevy version always worked. Last I've heard the SC ones are the right length now, but they are still priced higher than the Chevy ones. Why, who knows?

ARP fasteners are always reusable due to the steel used. The nuts should be lubed when fastened to ensure proper torque is applied to ensure proper stretch.
