Fabo 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2010 Hey people! Just had a look around on the web and can only find one source of headstuds for the m20 head, which is http://www.turbochargingdynamics.com/produ...d_Studs_m20.php I'm not sure if it is reliable but I have no idea where or how I would obtain these otherwise? Thanks in prior to your help (I am in hopes of at least 250-300whp and have ordered a thicker headgasket from the BMW dealer cost me an arm and a leg too.)
