What size allen is needed for the flywheel bolts on my svt? I have a 1/4" allen socket for my rocker arms but I'm sure the SVT is metric. Should be doing my clutch/input shaft seal next weekend.

It's a torx head bolt. I believe there are 6 of them. You should replace them each time you remove the flywheel. The bolts ran me about $17. I can check the exact size when I get to work on Monday.

No problem. It probably wouldn't hurt if you have an extra on hand. It always sucks to break a torx and not have a replacement.

It wouldn't hurt to have an strong 3/8" or 1/2" impact to get the bolts out.
