If they are ARP studs the 6 longer studs go on the passenger side outside the valve cover.

The longest bolts go with the thickest part of the head & vs , vs - shortest on the thinest .
An other way to look at it is the closer to the cylinder , the more thread part of the bolt that should go into the block .

Curt, how much of a job was it? Did you pull the whole head and deck it or no? I'm gonna have to replace my head gasket here soon so I was just wondering. A 24V can't be that much different.

i left the head and just put the studs in place of the bolts one at a time it wasnt bad at all just time consuming. i was also working slowly. with some basic to good mechanical skill its not too bad. but also i mechanic for a living
