so Ive read that the g32b has alot in common with the 4g37. im sorry if im off, i dont know alot about either of these motors, im a 4g6x guy. I have a talon dl that i want to make my DD as I build my mirage. it blew a head gasket and then the previous owner replaced it and it blew like 2 days later. the guy reused the head studs and I believe that that was the problem. he got fed up with the car and gave it to me so I want to redo it with ARP studs. where can I source them? I saw the post on finding the ones for the colt, but wasnt sure if the 4g37 would use the same. what tool do I need to pull the studs from the head?

so the first step to finding headstuds is checking to see if the head is warped? thats funny I thought it would be a part number or something. Im in desperate need of a running car because my mirage blew its headgasket because the smart guy that did the head swap on it used the wrong gasket. so if I can get this 4g37 talon running I can stay in the game, if not ill have to part everything out for some cash to buy something that runs. so if someone can help with the questions that I asked it would be greatly appreciated.

whats the best head gasket? everywhere i searched they run felpro
can i get arp studs?
