I use ARP studs in my setup also,no problems at all removing the heads and you can torque them down a bit tighter,the studs are basically used in racing applications as not to wear the block threads out due to frequent removal,and as Chris stated they are stronger and give more accurate torque readings,I recommend them highly.
