Question Need E-Torx sizes for head and rod bolts
I'm pretty sure the head bolts are E-16. Can someone confirm? I also need the size of the later conrod bolts.

Thanks...

I thought the rod bolts were not external Torx, but something a bit different. Like a cross between external Torx and flats...

IIRC they're 12 point instead of 6 point (hex). Imagine two hexagons with one rotated 30(?) degrees. A normal 12 point socket should fit fine.
