im putting a d16z6 head on a d16y7 block. i bought the d16z studs and they were too long... so i went and got the d16y studs. they are all fine except one. the one by the flywheel to the intake side. where the nut would sit, its a lil higher than the rest. has anyone ever put studs on a mini-me (using a z6 head)?

 

Maybe try using some APR studs?? You can give them a call and see what if they can help u.

 

..they are arp studs, it just that on the intake side, the last bolt(tranny side), the area where the nut sits, its elevated and theres not enuf stud sticking out to get the nut completey on.

 

call the tech department about it. See if they can give u an explanation
