Head Bolt Size?
Can anyone tell me what size the headbolts for an '85 CGT are (5 cylinder 2.2L engine)? Got mine opened up and found they are the "hex/allen" type and I need to buy the proper tool.
Any suggestions for a source?

Re: They aren't hex... don't even try it...
Thanks for the input. I'd pulled the valve cover, found the oil filled head bolts and, by my calibrated little finger, discovered they were not standard bolts. I just assumed they were the "allen/hex" head style. Armed with your info, I've found a tool supply house locally that has the requisite tool - I'll pick it up at lunch tomorrow. Thanks for the help!
