I don't need the kit, already had the kit just need to change the head studs and head gasket. I'm confused on which one to get from ARP. They Have a LS/VTEC Head stud kit but it only says for B18 block for B16 or B20 head and what not. I have the B18B block with a B18C P72 Head. So do i Just go for the 208-4302, 208-4303, or 208-4306?
