5sfe ARP head stud mod - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I was wondering if someone could tell me how much I need to trim the ARP head studs from a 3sgte kit in order for them to fit on a 5sfe head. (There is only two that need to be trimmed.) I have a fax sheet from ARP, so I can write it up and fax it back to them when I am done. Once they know the details they will probably start making a kit.

I just ordered a head gasket from from burien toyota and found out the answer. They take 5mm off the stud. Only he orders a different stud and makes his own kit. Real nice guy and I would easily do business with him again. The gasket he sells is $48.35 and my local dealer wanted $82 for the same gasket!
