that’s what most people have told me when I’ve asked bolts vs studs......and why should I go with one over the other. Probably gonna stick with bolts unless the one guy who is so adamant we use studs can “change my mind” lol. Or throw some funds my way to cover the price bump lol

I’m also doing a rebuild on my ls7. I ended up blowing a head gasket causing a piston to crack. I ended up ordering bolts for my engine rather than the studs. I plan on maxing out my v3-si trim as well after all is put back together. When u get to San Diego look me up as I live here too. Good luck with your build!!
