Default How bad can this be?

Well im getting ready to put my newly redone jdm b16 back and I was wondering how bad it would be to use some OEM b16 head studs with like 60,000 miles on them? I really wish i could get some arp's right now, but i just can't...

I wouldn't risk it. You can do it, but if it the headgasket blows out in the near future, you will know why.

OEM are just as expensive as ARP. Just find a set on honda-tech or something. It won't be more than $120.
