i have a set of long head allen sockets with a ball on the end. the ball is cut like the allen head so it will grip on an angle. the whole thing is like 6 inches long. i dont really remember what size but i think it was a 6mm.

If you still can't get the top center allan head bolt off, but you got the other outer ones off you can turn the intake conter clock wise to loosen it up & then try again. make sure you have a ball end allen wrench. Been there & done that, it sucked. Just remember to take your time & ask questions, thats what I did & saved me from buying a new intake!

I used a ball end allen wrench, and used some vice grips to give me a little more leveredge when turning the allen key. It made the whole situation a 'non-issue.'

5mm Allen

Solution to wearing upper motor mount. . . don't use it! We cut mine out completely when we put the FCR's on. Even with the 760 it isn't needed.

If you are removing the head / cylinder you may want to grind away a little on the upper motor mount and the mount on the head. This will allow you to remove the head without removing any of the lower motor mounts.
