You could use either, especially if you didn't do a piston change. I think most people use the ARP's thinking that they are a better quality item and that the cost difference is to insignificant not to just use them.

I like ARP studs. Gives me a little more peace of mind. But whatever you do,
don't reuse the stock bolts.
