These studs are as big as you can get in the stock bolt holes without reaming them out. You may find some studs tight, depending on casting differences and if the top has been mushroom from previous hard installations. If you can’t get the studs to slip through with little force, carefully tap the big end through the bolt holes from the combustion chamber/deck side upword until they go through. Then put a impact or drill on a socket and spin the studs until they loosen up. They should then slip in and out easily. Remove any burrs and clean the head if any particles were left behind.
