Product Information

Fits the 2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302 and 2013-2014 Mustang GT, matched to the Coyote 5.0L V8. This ARP kit replaces the factory head bolts with studs, for whenever you have the heads off that engine.

Why Upgrade to ARP Head Studs

  • ARP builds this as a stud kit, not a bolt kit: the studs thread into the block once and stay put, then the heads clamp down with nuts torqued onto the studs.
  • That is the basic job of a head stud kit on the Coyote 5.0L V8: keep the heads clamped when they go back on.
  • [VERIFY: ARP's specific benefit and performance claims for this kit are not stated beyond the product name.]

Fitment Notes

This kit fits the 2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302 and the 2013-2014 Ford Mustang GT, both running the Coyote 5.0L V8. It does not fit the Mustang GT500 or V6.

Install and Honest Talk

Putting ARP studs into a Coyote 5.0L V8 means pulling the cylinder heads first. This is not a job you knock out with the engine still together, and it is real labor and machine shop time you skip if you leave the factory head bolts alone. Weigh that against doing nothing.

What else you need: [VERIFY: torque specs, whether ARP's assembly lubricant and hardware are included, and any machine shop resurfacing requirement for this kit.] Check the instructions that ship with the kit, or ask a machine shop that knows the Coyote 5.0L V8, before you plan the install around it.

No Robots. Just Car People.

Buying parts for your Mustang or F-150 should not feel like homework. Too many stores bury you in a giant catalog, slap the same distributor description on every product, and leave you guessing whether it even fits.


We do it the other way. We carry the brands you already trust, we tell you what a part actually does, and we give you the truth about the tradeoffs before you spend a dollar. Drone on that exhaust. Ride quality on those springs. Whether you need a tune. The stuff the big catalogs leave out.
