Arp bolts
Hi all,
Can anyone tell me what type of socket fits these bolts, they're nothing like the star type sockets I've got, lots more indents.
Cheers
Steve

I have always used a 12 pointed socket on
ARP bolt's.
Are they something new???

ARP=American Racing Products so there is a good chance they are imperial, I think I needed a 12 point 14 mm socket for my Pinto head bolts
