There was no consistent size for the heads. I ended up using a 3/8" six point for some and had to use a 10mm 12 point wrench for others and a six point socket to get the rest out. ABSOLUTE GARBAGE!
I’m sure it depends on the brand . Never have had a problem with ARP brand I use them on headers and intakes .
