What size are the stock head bolts in a 7M-GE?

I searched and couldn't find the info I was looking for.

This is my question: What size socket will I need to remove the stock head bolts from an NA 7M-GE?

I am pulling a head off in the junk yard and want to make sure I take the right tools and not have to make multiple trips.

Thanks in advance!

They are 10mm hex heads. You will need to get a socket with a 10mm allen head

I used a 3/8 inch allen in mine, just barely fits without stripping it out.

3/8 is smaller than a 10mm. get a long 10mm Allen socket that way you don't have to turn/remove the cams. makes the job like 10X easier.

I wouldn't reuse those bolts now Nick.
