[QUOTE="Triumph1188, post: 907890, member: 13562"] 6 per cylinder would be much better... I have heard issues with oringed heads on dd trucks because of the many heat cycles it goes through. The orings start to fatigue over time. The consensus I got was that fire rings and orings are most effective in race/pulling trucks. If the head flexes slightly under higher cylinder pressures, then there is really no way to keep it reliable under higher power levels. Unless you don't monitor coolant pressure haha. Ignorance might be bliss in that case. I already have a set or standard ARPs. I might sell them and eat the difference in cost for what I can sell them for and go with extreme studs or try and find an h11 stud before those disappear. I am not sure I see that making a huge difference if the heads physically flex because there isn't a uniform enough clamping force from the bolt pattern... [/QUOTE]
