• So far 53 willys is using ARP Ford escort/sierra cosworth head studs.  Just wondering if there is actually a head stud specific for 1.6/1.9TD  (MF/AAZ)
  
  Thanks.

• The Ford Escort ones are the right ones for the 12m/m conversion.  I'm not sure about the 11's. They are a perfect fit and thread in lot deeper especially on the 11 m/m ones the factory 12 m/m bolts go deep enough but are the stretch type and ARP eliiminates that mess.

• lol  not to many of those around western canada it seems.  Ended up ordering online.  For anyone interested  MJM Autohaus specifically lists a performance diesel head stud kit.  Which of course uses the ARP 251-4701 head studs.    Thanks for the help guys.

• I'm using ARP Ford escort/sierra cosworth head studs too. I torqued mine to just over 100 lbs. only have about 400km and hits 25 psi regularily. No issues yet.
