Wow... those are 1/4th of the price of ARP's head studs. Is it worth paying 4x the price and getting ARP's? I'll be going boost on a 06 silverado 5.3 and if these really hold up I'll try them out.

I'll be replacing most of the seals in the engine. You guys think I should run conventional motor oil for the first 500 miles?
I run conventional period, I buy the cheapest I can find but run a good wix filter. I've seen enough oil analysis reports to form my opinion that its not worth the extra cash. My trucks are not daily drivers so when they get driven they're usually driven very hard and I've never had a problem.

I don't buy the cheapest but usually Rotella or castrol, with wix /delco or purolater. But agree here.. I have always said keep up the maint and you will never have a issue. We have beat boat motors for runs up to 20-30 mins at over 4k running walmart crap. Sooooo
