Its a good questoin. I have a box of ARP head studs sitting on my shelf now that read 256-4702. Run that part number and they are listed as 11-12 Coyote 5.0 studs on the ARP site, yet on the Beefcake and other Mustang performance sites it also says 18+. https://arp-bolts.com/kits/arpkit-detail.php?RecordID=3946. Since Ford went back to the 12mm stud in 2018, apparently these are correct for 18+ also.There seems to be a bit of confusion over what head studs will fit the Predator block. Example, ARP lists different part numbers for 18up coyote and 16-20 5.2l.
PD blowers generate a lot more heat and I'd be afraid 5/30 would break downWhy is that?
You’re already upping the operating viscosity by 10 over the suggested 5W-20. Any type of compressor will mostly just raise IAT’s, but oil temperatures generally only end up a few degrees warmer.PD blowers generate a lot more heat and I'd be afraid 5/30 would break down

Who knows at this point! Guess ill find out when i assemble my motor.
There's a part number for every gen plus 5.2l. Has to be a difference.Right?
Shelby tax maybe.. idk
Different nut sizes and different allen wrench sizes.There's a part number for every gen plus 5.2l. Has to be a difference.
What about different stud length?Different nut sizes and different allen wrench sizes.
I don't pretend to be an expert, but in addition to IATs I'm pretty sure PD blowers also raise engine temps. We have a hot rock sitting right on top of the engine. That's why I have a 170 thermostat. Also is 5w-20 still the recommended oil? I thought dealers upped it to 5-30 when the tick craze came out.You’re already upping the operating viscosity by 10 over the suggested 5W-20.

The compressor sits high above the heads. 75% of the oil is below the cylinder heads to the bottom of the oil pain. Oil/ECT temperatures do not gain more than 8-10°F with a any forced induction in general. Warmer oil makes more power as well. 5W-20, or 5W-30 is what I use depending on what’s on sale at the time.I don't pretend to be an expert, but in addition to IATs I'm pretty sure PD blowers also raise engine temps.

How long have you been doing that? How often are you changing? and I assume your oil looks good? I have been thinking of going to 5-40 since its half the priceThe compressor sits high above the heads. 75% of the oil is below the cylinder heads to the bottom of the oil pain.

Been running 5W-30 on every blown car I’ve had since 1998. Personally, 40WT is too thick for these Coyotes, unless your road racing in Arizona in August.How long have you been doing that?

I wonder why ARP has a part number for 18up gt? Ill call tomorrow and find out.I am running ARP 11-12 head studs on my 2018. Direct fit.
