ARP Engine Fasteners — Canada
Priced in CAD • No duties • No brokerage fees • Fast shipping across Canada
ARP (Automotive Racing Products) is the world's leading manufacturer of high-performance engine fasteners — head studs, main studs, rod bolts, flywheel bolts, and specialty hardware produced from aerospace-grade 8740 chrome moly and Custom Age 625+ alloy steel. ARP fasteners are trusted by engine builders worldwide for applications ranging from mildly modified street engines to 2,000+ hp competition builds. At MyPartsGuy.ca we carry the ARP lineup, all priced in Canadian dollars with no import fees or brokerage charges.
For any Canadian engine build — whether you're upgrading a WRX/STI, LS swap, K-series build, or diesel performance engine — ARP head studs are the standard recommendation over OEM head bolts, which are typically torque-to-yield single-use fasteners not rated for repeated heat cycling or elevated cylinder pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are ARP head studs better than OEM head bolts?
OEM head bolts are typically torque-to-yield fasteners — designed to stretch slightly when torqued, which means they cannot be reliably reused. ARP studs use a different clamping method (stud and nut) that provides more even clamping force across the head gasket surface and can be reused. For any engine build where the head is being removed and reinstalled, or where boost pressure exceeds OEM levels, ARP head studs are the appropriate replacement.
Do ARP fasteners require special installation procedures?
Yes — ARP provides specific torque values and lubrication instructions for each application. Always use ARP's Ultra-Torque fastener assembly lubricant when installing ARP hardware. Following ARP's installation instructions is required to achieve the rated clamping load.
