I am removing my head and have became confussed :thumbdown
I keep reading that the headbolts use a 10mm hex to remove it, but also from my understanding there are 10 bolts. There are some bolts that use hex wrench, but not 10 of them. Please help me determine which bolt I am to remove.This pic shows the two I am talking about.
Thanks, JB

OK, I thought it was those bolts, but everyone says they use allens, size 10mm. There is no where to put an allen though. It looks like a torx socket. I am so confused as to why my bolts don't use allens :cry: . Any more advice will def. help.
Thanks, JB
 
OK, here is another pic of the bolt i believe it is. These bolts however do not have allen heads, they are torx head. I just want to make sure these are the right bolts before I take them off. I appreciate the help, but here is the pic:
Thanks, JB

I believe that the 6 bolt engines use the allen bolts and the later engines use the torx head bolts.
