I need to remove the bolts that hold the rocker boxs on amd they are 8mm BiHex, anyone know where you can get these? Google does not show up anything and Halfrauds never heard of them.

Nearly does it, they have 1/2 and 3/8 drive but it needs to be 1/4 dive to fit down the side of the rocker cover. Thanks for finding that though.

thought i was going to have to do this but i managed to do it with a cheap 8mm ring spanner.
But then i didnt have the intake manifold on so there was a lot more room...not much help really...sorry.

That's strange cos I bought mine from Halfords, IIRC it was a 1/4" drive deep socket.

Thats O.K. for 6 bols but not for the ones holding the heater pipes.

Chassis33, I'll try another look in Halfords.

How do you add to you post some one elses post as reference.
