You'll have to buy that one because when I installed these brand new studs in a '78 SC, not an hour went by until I heard a "PING" and one of the studs turned into a projectile.

FWIW, I have Supertec studs now and they are far superior to what Porsche did, overkill or not. Send me a PM with your address and I'll send you the studs.

I'll bite. PM Sent. I am going to fixture in a jig to test bolt preload and will share results here. Might snap some. While I am not a "boltologist", I did design bolted joints in a previous life. I have a little time in my rebuild before I'm ready for head studs.
