Thumbs up M116 headbolt size?

Can anyone tell me what size socket I'll need to remove some heads from a 380 motor?

Thanks

If the cams are on you'll need the offset M116/7 head bolt bit. I lent mine out more than 5 years ago and forgot who I lent it to IIRC it's an 8mm hex.

Maybe I'll pull the cams first then. Looks like a spendy tool for one job.

The one I got did the job and cost closer to $10.

Pull the cams if you can. Even with the tool it's very tedious to access the head bolts.

What's needed to pull the camshafts?
