I was trying to put in new valve cover gaskets, but i hit a snag when i got to the center screw that holds on the upper intake. the other 5 bolts came out easy enough but i can't get a look at what i need for that last screw. allen? torx?

thanks!

torx, T-40 i believe. it's gonna be one of those 6 inch long bits.

thank you! been needing a reason to buy a set.

Yup. T40. I used a magnetic short bit with a long extension to get to it. Weird angle. Good luck!

I used a long flathead screwdriver in the junkyard when i didnt have my torx bits. Just grabbed the driver with pliers, it wasnt very tight.
