What 7/16 Studs are the way to go?

Are there differences in the 7/16 studs you can use or are they the same for us Lt-1 guys, I see ARP's, comps, and many others which to buy? I'm going with guide plate's and non sa.

Thanks for any help.

I used Comp 7/16" studs with their guide plates when I did my XE swap.. but I'm sure the ARP's are good too.

Did you ever find the lower portion of the rockers real close to the head of the stud, mine are real close, I just thought there would be a little more room under there.

CC 7/16 studs work fine on LT1s.

What part numbers for LT1 studs? ARP, COMP? Because looking at the studs I pulled out of my aluminum heads, they have a 1/2" thread length, not the more common 3/4" (+/-) length. The ones I've seen look to damn long to put in there.
