With all the talk about cylinder expansion rates, I wonder if it ever makes sense to run dissimilar studs on the same engine?
The 78-83 experiment with dissimilar materials was abandon in 84 and never revisited by Porsche. Just like the engine builders in the real world, Porsche engineers learned something.

No matter what studs are chosen, they should all be the same. Now the only question is, are there studs that offer superior characteristics?
