Inner Row Head Bolts (Sold Separately):
Purchase the ARP 250-4206 Inner Row Head Bolts, or XDP Inner Row Head Bolt Kit XD3020HB. The Inner Row Bolts are an add-on that give you the necessary bolts to allow you to complete the job without having to reuse the factory bolts, or source a new set while your engine is torn apart. The inner row head bolts are used to secure the intake side of the cylinder head to the engine block and help to properly complete the factory bolt torque sequence.
XDP Thread Cleaning Chasers (Sold Separately):
Both the XD40126TC (for head studs), and XD40128TC (for inner row bolts) are an excellent add-on purchase that will be critical during installation. Thread Cleaning Chasers are the perfect tool to have on-hand to ensure that you have properly cleaned the threads in your engine block before the installation of any fasteners. Clean threads provide accurate torque readings and will help give you peace of mind during your engine build or head gasket repair.
