I bought a brand new head and it came in today so my car will hopefully be back on the streets by next weekend. I did not buy new head studs would it be alright to use the old ones for a little bit while i get some money to get new ones? I know that they streach this is why i am asking. Also if anyone would like to help me this weekend with this project I would greatly appricate it. Please let me know
-------------------- Up and running. For now at least.

Like awd4kicks said. If you have a 6-bolt engine, your head bolts can be reused because they don't stretch like the 7-bolt head bolts. If at all possible I'd opt for the ARP's though. Good insurance against a future blown headgasket.
