    which is nice if you've already got the old bolts out, if you dont you're going to wind up standing there staring at you V8 with the heads on scratching your self in your favorite scratching location wondering "ok so IVe got all the bolts to replace the ones on there but Im not sure how this helps me get them out..."

    He guys, I went to bunnings and got a kingchrome 3/8 long series socket set. That defiently works cause i had the same problem, but its gonna cost about $220 for the socket set. Or you can even try and order the individual socket!

    I swapped the bolts for Rover SD1 rocker cover screws, much easier to get in an out.
