Going to use ARP studs and not blots for the head
Any one done it before?
Just wondering what time-sert size to use 10mm or 11m x 30mm
and what Studs to use with the alloy block?
M52 block Studs

Are you planning on running boost/rude compression ratio?
If not I wouldn't bother. Fair bit of expense for no gains

Yes if you take measurements of the head bolt, ARP will be able to find you studs that they make which will fit.

Might be a consideration, if you use block studs as I have on my M42 unless you de stud the block in the car you can't remove the head in the car as in needs to move forward and up to miss the bulkhead.
You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity
