12mm x 3 or 4 different types like me...... ARP2000, Atomic Tool steal, etc......, none of them seem to hold the head down when pushing past 800+whp...

You would have the standard atomic studs in your motor.. However, these still should be fine at your power level..??? Did it lift bad, or just out the reservoir
