ARP Head Studs
Is there room to install the heads while the motor is in the car when using the ARP head studs?

I just finished installing a head with the intake manifold still on.

Lots of room.

Haha alright cool, just checking. Wasn't sure if there would be room by the firewall to lift the head over the studs.

If not, just remove the stud. The studs themselves should only go into the block finger tight anyway.

I just installed my heads last week over the studs. Plenty of clearance
