Can anyone tell where to get head studs for ih 466 and may a part number or dimension? I have also seen guys use Cat head bolts are they as good as studs? Does anyone possibly have that part number? Thank you for any help

A bolt is never as good as a stud. Extreme has a kit listed on their website. ARP offers the studs as does riverside and others.

Optitorque Is who I’d call. They asked if I wanted hex or 12 point nut and what grade I wanted.

Optitorque is just another name for Castner performance. Make your own choices but I would not put anything they built on my motor. If you want to buy off a catchy name go for it but. Buy from a trusted company extreme studs or arp.

I know that you looked at National machine s for this business, is that what you ended up with? Curiosity is only reason I ask.

Yes and no. We have been in negotiations on 2 separate 5 die nut forming machines to help increase production and leverage our market price point against our west coast competitor on 12 point nuts below 1/2". The under head lengths required on the long bolts and the internal hex we put in the long studs mean we have to wait for a machine to come available on the market that has the proper provisions. Currently the longest bolt/stud we could produce would be 16 inches under head length at a much slower production rate than a progressive header.

Thank you Ross for the reply. I just want to thank you for looking to a American company to help with your needs instead of looking straight to overseas suppliers. That is where I make my living at.
