i just bought a head off someone so i could build it on the side. he gave me a bunch of extra stuff including arp studs. can i reuse these, or because of the previous use (HOT COLD HOT COLD) they are not as strong?

As far as I know..they are reusable

just measure the overall length and make sure they are all the same. As long as none are stretched, they can be reused with no problem.

ARP doesn't use a stretch bolt design like the stock headbolts. You should be ok, but of course, if you re-tighten them a bunch, expect them to fail eventually. The metal will fatigue eventually.
