First of all, if you've been reading my blown head gasket post, ARP bolts are 12 point 1/2" socket size. Stock head bolts use the 10mm allen head socket. And obivously the ARP stud nuts would not be allen head. So if you are reusing the stock bolts or using new stock bolts then you will need a 10mm allen head 3/8" drive socket. I bought one for $4.65 from NAPA and it fit perfectly. If you are using ARP bolts then you will need a 1/2", 12 point, 3/8" drive, shallow socket. I bought one at NAPA for $2.99 and it fits perfectly. The only thing Snap-on I'd suggest is their 3/8" drive digital torque wrench.
