stud upgrade for factory rockers

[MidnightriderZ24]

guys that isnt the point. ive seen a few 10mm and 8mm rockers pull out of heads under daily conditions. i just want to ensure i wont at 8000 maybe higher rpms. torquing the rockers inst an issue, i trust my snap on tech-wrench. wanted an opinion on a stud versus a traditional bolt. im pretty sure i have it solved by drilling to a 10mm, with a stud.

I've had my rockers on and off 5 times now, no problems-yet, how ever I am following the torque specs to a T with the torque wheel, And you can positively feel where the fastener is at its limits right when you get to 28-30*

I just use Loctite red and a prayer to the 60v6 gods.

this may also be caused by over-torquin'....

Drill and tap it for M10 bolts like the old heads had. If the bolt is just straight ripping the metal out of the heads then studs vs bolts wont make a difference.

i would like to run some studs to replace the factory bolts, has anyone tried this to help prevent the rockers from pulling out of the head for high rpm??
