Noted fastener manufacturer ARP has developed a number of efficient solutions for the task at hand. These include a series of application-specific kits for most popular engines, plus “universal” kits to cover the rest. Stud kits —which have specially designed “nut starter” noses— are preferred by many because of being able to accurately position gaskets and guide the header flanges into place.

Wilwood Disc Brakes Starlite 55XD Lug-Drive Wide 5 Race Hubs Wilwood Racing has engineered an innovative new Lug-Drive dynamic-mount rotor system specifically for the lighter, stronger Starlite 55XD Wide 5 hubs. The 55XD design shaves weight by mounting the forged aluminum rotor adapter closer to the hub’s reinforced center using fewer mounting bolts. The new Lug-Drive system simplifies rotor mounting using a snap ring in place of bolts and safety wire, allowing it to float and heat cycle without distortion for a more consistent pedal feel and longer life.
