About to pull the head of a CA18 - and noticed the headbolts require an Allen key...10mm I believe.

Now my socket set doesn't include a Allen key bit.

I imagine I'll be able to take the head bolts out - but how to get them back in an re-torqued.

From someone who's done it before and has the benefit of hindsight...what's the best way to get this job done?

I saw this at NissnSilvia

and this (nice pics)

But they don't say what they used to reinstall head bolts.
