Anyone know the socket size for the nut for the arp head studs? Im trying to fit something over them to remove my head and I cant find the right size. I thought it was 15mm but that seems to slip off of it and 14mm is too small, Please Help.....

It has to be a 3/8" drive 14mm, with a 1/2" adaptor on it. Craftsman seems to fit the bill well.

ARP head bolts are 1/2 inch 12 point socket.
ARP head studs are 14mm 12 point socket.
If you could find one, a 17/32 inch 12 point socket might work better, but I've never found one.

Thanks guys, apparently I dont have the right tool (14mm 12pt socket) for the job! All I have is a 14mm 6pt. Oh well, I will have to get one tomorrow!
Learned something recently...the stud nuts are 9/16" 12 pt

Just so happens a 14mm 12 pt will work as well

keep in mind you'll have to buy a tap to clean the holes out as the stock headbolts only go halfway in while the studs have to go all the way in...
the threads are there, they just get ugly...
