400ex head studs

Where can I get a new set of head studs at a reasonable cost? I keep blowing head gaskets and I think it's because i'm reusing the old head studs instead of buying new ones.

Another thing to check is your head gasket sealing surfaces, if there not flat bolts arent gonna keep the head gaskets from blowing either.

Ok I got a STOCK gasket, had the head milled and had the machine shop install new studs and it works perfect. USE A STOCK-STYLE HEAD GASKET! THEY'RE SOLID AND THEY WONT BLOW OUT!
