What's ARP's Head stud final Torque for the 3.8? Just curious. I am used to Diesel Performance and ending sequence after 3rd stage torque on all 24 is 165 Ft Lbs for upgraded 14MM studs when holding boost levels from 80-110 PSi 
Allthough Me running 56Lbs of boost on factory head BOLTS is pushing it so I am naturally a boost junkie.
Now a Boosted JK .. Hmmmmmmm
Junkie next level.

The ARPs are torqued to 80 ft-lbs, which may not sound like a lot compared to 165, but believe me those suckers will hold 12 psi all day long w/o any problem at all. They are simply works of art and a nice addition for any boost junkie!

No doubt. The lower end of the 3.8 believe it or not is stout. The valve train ... could use some titanium to lighten up loss but for bolt on kits .... big bang hp for the money spent without pesky parasitic loss. Like the saying goes injection is nice but would rather be blown
