[QUOTE="IllCobra, post: 15557022, member: 77366"] Looks like for ARP 156-4301 the cheapest place will be THMotorsports @ $277.18 with shipping. The stronger ARP 256-4201 I found at Lightning Motorsports for $370 after shipping. I took my heads to Tim at MPR, they're in Boynton Beach. If you remember, I was the guy that was contacting you about buying your SB Cobra. In hindsight, having the valve seat drop on me and having to spend a couple grand after parts and labor right off the bat, i wish i would have just waited a bit longer and bought yours haha. What a sorry coincidence that we both up getting screwed, though, I don't think the guy i bought mine from knew the valve seat was going to drop... Anyway, I'm sure you're going to have to go with the stronger head studs since you're pushing much more power than i am. I thought i was set on buying the 256-4201 but i just don't see the reason to if the 156-4301 will do the job just fine. Hell, there are people running stock head bolts with aftermarket blowers. I guess i'm just sick of spending money on the car just to get it running and every dollar spent i could have used to buy parts that i could have at least felt (power) or see (rims,tires, gauges). Rant over haha [/QUOTE]
