The BETA head requires a custom set; I have the specifications at the office but I'm not there today (physically) There are eight 10mm studs and then two 12mm studs; unfortunately the 12mm studs must be 100% custom manufactured to like 6.8725 inches in length with a 1.25 thread pitch.
Without those two 12mm studs, my entire gammut of bolts (ten main cap studs, eight 10mm studs, all the washers and nuts to fit) was about $150. With the inclusion of those two 12mm studs, the price jumped to $225. Yes, better than seventy dollars on just TWO studs.
Unless you plan on making more than 300 wheel horsepower (at least a $6,000 project) you can likely skip that step.
