    M52 head question

    I am working on a M52 and it needs a new HG so im getting one this weekend. I plan on getting Elring Klinger. it has 5 thumbs up on pelican and i hear they are better than victor reins. So here is my question. I want to make sure i dont have to do this again.....EVER, So if i get ARP head bolts or studs will it prevent future HG blows? Also keep in mind im having AIMS machine shop surface the head or a spare head so the car isnt down for a week.

    BTW: its just the coolant seal on the rear passenger side that blew. All of the cylinders are sealed and no chocolate milk at all so its all good there.

    ARP hardware is designed to provide better clamping force/prevent head lift ect... than OEM head bolts. It will not prevent HG failure.

    Just prep your surfaces well, have the head cut proper and torque to specs in the right sequence and youll be fine.
