Default SSM Head studs.

I have decided to turbo my car and a couple people reccomended that I get stronger head studs.
My first question is what exactly do head studs do?

My second question is will the stronger ones from Supersix work with the stock 4.0 heads?

And my final question is can you reuse these things, like if I could use them with my stock heads, then got new ones could I re use them?

Head Studs keep the Heads from lifting.

I dont know about SSM's head studs but ARP Head Studs can be used on the stock heads and are also reusable.

Scroll down alittle ways. I would call to make sure those are for your car though because usually they will say SOHC and it jus says OHC instead
