just out of interest, why do you want to know ?

(btw - I'll probably have a spare set or two of bothe the early and late types)

just curious , getting some new HT bolts before I take the old head off, so I've got everything I need to change it over ready.

Just had the head back from Coltec and they reccomended using HT (12.9) socket head bolts over standard head bolts, to give it a bit more pinch..

Some pinto's require stretch bolts, I cannot remember which though - sorry
