Anyone had head gasket failure with normal ARP studs?

I had ordered the new style expensive ARP studs, and just found out some info that will keep me from having a set before the 8th of next month. So I opted to just go with the normal ARP studs. Has anyone here blown a head gasket with the normal studs? My twins are being powdercoated at this time, but I don't plan on running any more than 60 pounds of boost. I have nitrous in the garage, so I may use that as well.. Thanks..
