ARP 3/8 socket-connecting rods

[airstuff]

Hey guys,

does anyone have a pic of how the socket for fastening the ARP bolts looks like?It's not Alen or Torx,wright?

I can't seem to find any in hardware shop here in Croatia.Maybe in the pro sets which are too expensive,and I only need one socket.

Thanks

I thought it was a 12 point 3/8s socket.

I really don't know,looking first time for that kind of tool,and our socket dimensions and names are different from your's in USA.So looking for some feedback

3/8 head size.

take a bolt with you..wait..take a complete rod, harder to lose than a bolt:-)

All you need is a 12 point socket for normal hexagon head bolts. 3/8" socket fits CB race rods bolts.

Just to be clear on this.
A 5/16" bolt takes a 3/8" socket
A 3/8" bolt takes a 7/16" socket.
