TA head bolts offer the ultimate in quality and the convenience of bolts for your big
block Buick. Allows you to retorque your cylinder heads without removing the rocker arms
or valve springs because of our reduced 9/16 hex head diameter (1/2 on small block and
Nailhead). TA head bolts are cold-formed from 8740 chrome moly steel for strength and
heat treated prior to thread rolling and machining. Kits include the bolts with hardened
and parallel ground washers to ensure even loading and accurate torque readings.

V8 Head Bolt Kits
TA main studs are stronger and more practical than the stock main bolts. The
benefits of installing our main studs are increased bearing life by preventing main
cap walk, while giving additional strength to the bottom end of your engine. Studs
will draw down more evenly producing better clamping force and because studs
arent removed as often as bolts they provide less wear on block threads. All studs
are thread rolled and machined from the highest quality heat treated 8740 chrome
moly steel. All kits also include heat treated hex nuts and parallel-ground washers
for proper installation. Recommended for street or competition build ups. Our big
block main stud kits also include TA Exclusive features such as special 12 point
nuts for the first main journal, custom length studs and proper thread lengths.
These 3 key upgrades ensure adequate clearance to the oil pan!

In many applications 400-430-455 items interchange, so if an item has a 455 part number it probably covers the 400
and 430 as well. Also in many instances, items with 350 part numbers fit other small block and V6 applications, such as the
215,225,231,300,340. We have made every attempt to note when items are not interchangeable.
