ARP 144-4005 is the stud kit that will work. Same as Eddie heads

Got it, thanks. Would the bolt kit be 144-3601?

I think it’s 3602, but I won’t swear to it. Thought the 3601 was for W2 heads.
Might give ARP a call and ask which crosses to the stud kit.

Yes

Yes 144-3601 . Has the two additional long bolts required with the Speedmasters , Edelbrocks and W2s. This is what I used on my Speedmasters. The 3602 mentioned above is for stock stock heads.

I second the ARP bolt kit for Edelbrock heads is what I used with my Speedmaster heads.

Studs are better than bolts because of how they clamp the load.

But if you ever plan to pull the heads while in the car, you want to use bolts as the heads will not clear the brake booster or blower fan.
