Default Cylinder head bolts size

Trying to figure out what size this bolt is, bigger than a T-50... not sure if it's even a torx (if there's some other kind idk about) I apologize for my ignorance in advance lol

It's a poly drive, not a torx. 11mm on the aeb iirc, but not sure the size on the 2.8s. Specialty tool stores are your friend lol.

Yea like that one. Find a nice long one so it gets deep enough into the head, and so you don't need an extension to torque them, which lessens the lb/ft.

I wish I had a specialty store around here, nothin but rednecks with big trucks or everyone's favorite people riding on 38" rims (slight exaggeration) anyway, can anyone verify if it's still the 11MM for the 2.8?
