Gator Fasteners Heavy Duty Head Stud Kit 03-07 Ford 6.0L Powerstroke
Description
Overview
The factory head bolts in your 6.0L Powerstroke do not have the best of reputations. Factory Ford head bolts are known for stretching causing head gasket failures. Whether you are bulletproofing your stock 6.0L or installing an aftermarket performance turbo, Gator Fasteners has your back. The Gator Fasteners Heavy Duty Head Studs will eliminate the risk of blown head gaskets and strengthen the top end of your engine. These head studs are designed for stock to moderately built engines and feature tensile strength over 220,000psi. Each stud has rolled threads and are constructed from 8740 steel with an added proprietary element for the ultimate in durability and strength. Nothing bites like a Gator!

How it works
After checkout, we route your vehicle info and part SKU to verified installation shops near you. Local installers review the job and submit competitive bids; you pick the shop you want based on price, reviews, and availability. Your name and email stay private until you select an installer.
Pricing
You pay for the bid from your preferred shop. The full amount is shown before you confirm — installers cannot add charges without your written consent. Payments are processed securely by Stripe.
Your privacy
During bidding, shops see only your service ZIP code, vehicle year/make/model, and the part SKU — not your name, email, or address. Only the shop you select receives your contact details after payment. We never sell your personal information.
