Just a quick note. I went to get head studs years ago, and expected
trouble as they were UNC / UNF and this is Scotland.

Chap in the hardware store lifted down a box and said 'how many do you
want ?'

Apparently there is a standard stud thread combination / length / ratio,
some thing like;

Dia A, thread UNC (A x 2) one end thread UNF (A x 3) other end, overall
length (A x ?)

Didn't explain that too well, but what is amounts to is that a jeep head
stud is a specified standard part which should be over-the-counter,
especially in the US.
