Hello all, I have two 240's. My sedan has over 400k and my wagon has right at 300k. Never had the cam cover off either one. I didn't want to pull the cam cover off just to look at the head bolts. Was wondering if they were normal (hex head) bolts? Reason I am asking is that I WAS a SAAB guy years ago, if you own a 900 you WILL (before 200k) have to replace the head gasket, and the head bolts are Torx Head type bolts. I bought a very expensive (Snap On) socket to accomplish that task, and would like to sell the socket on Ebay if I won't need it for the Volvo at some point. Anyone know?

Thanks.

Scott in Dallas....
