Gator Fasteners main stud kits are designed for stock to performance built engines. When building a high horsepower Cummins engine, the factory main bolts can only handle so much power. Factory bolts can stretch and unfortunately cause what's called main cap walk or loss of torque. Both these conditions can contribute to major engine issues. These heavy-duty main studs eliminate these issues and add strength to the bottom end of your engine. When it comes to reliable engine assembly, don't get caught with sub-par parts. Gator studs are what you need! Each stud has rolled threads and is constructed from 8740 steel with an added proprietary element for the ultimate in durability and high-tensile strength.
