In magnesium cases, we use Supertec head studs with CaseSavers and have had zero reported failures over the last 20+ years.
Quit using Dilivar when we had brand new ones break on the engine stand before the engine ever ran.

As an air-cooled Porsche only engine shop, we see all kinds of engines with varying mileage and rebuild quality. To this day, I have rarely taken apart a mag case 2.7 with Dilivar studs that didn't show head to cylinder instability.
