I notice there are 2 long required on the top row.
And somewhere in their literature states 0.100” longer is also required.
No one I know has these now. So, I was wondering what my alternatives are.
 
Yea,
I didn't realize the Eddies had 2 long ones.
and the 0.100" longer is bull, since most stud kits leave .250" above the nut anyway.
Appreciate it a lot.

I was looking to order a set of the head studs for my speed masters as well. On the Summit site, the SMs are still out of stock and it says the substitute for the are the ARP 144-4003 where Turbo's link is for the ARP 144-4005. I am not sure what the difference is but the "003" kit costs a bit more. I can't tell anything from the pictures or descriptions between the the two ARP sets. Can you guys confirm which is the correct set?

144-4003 are for W5/W7. I don't know why summit would recommend those as an alternative, but the SM heads are Edelbrock knockoffs and use the same studs as the Eddy heads.
 
I used the sm set. There were 2 extra long studs. Dental dart I think used head bolts. Kim. The thread is: Speedmaster heads, am I forgetting something.
