I have a stock car trans with original bolts in them. I cant find the right tool to remove them. Are they, Allen, Torx, or what ever else there may be. Also what size would be a big help!!!!!!
Thanks again,

they are either allen or the stupid star bit. Pair of vise grips will help ya get the old junk ones out. then after they are out throw them across the garage and forget them lol THen go buy all new allen head bolts along with the allen socket for them.
