You need to have them when working on these cars. They are much less likely to strip the head. Head to Sears or Lowe's and get a nice set of Torx bits with a half inch adapter.Originally Posted by webster

You've done your Oil Filter Housing Gasket? I'm just throwing it out there that there is an extra step with these pulleys installed when removing the alternator.

I'm confused that y'all are confused. How do you break a bolt loose if there is nothing to hold the pulley in place? Take off your belt and try to remove the pulley without it.
The Alternator was brought up because the Power Steering Pump Pulley is now larger than stock, thus interfering with removal of alternator, should you ever need to do so. Just a heads up, no need to be confused, just future advice. Please recall that I have these pulleys, I believe I even suggested them to you, and when replacing my failed OFHG, I ran into the aforementioned snag and had to back track quite a bit to remove the pulley and complete the job.

Idk... But I don't have a 47.
Probably a 45.
Bentley says 8mm hex for mechanical.
T60 for AC tensioner.
