Ok, so when I went to drop the transmission, the cv bolts looked pretty chewed. Where can I get a fresh set of these? What size are they? Also, I've seen references to a special tool for removing them? Are they just a little different than a torx bit? Pelican Parts lists bolts & tool for a 68+ 911, is this what I want?

I thought it was a tri-square, but I could be wrong. Anyway, you need to use new bolts and new lockwashers. Torque them up properly and don't forget to check after a week of driving. There are many stories of grief when they get loose and the drive shaft acts like a big club and whacks everything within reach. On a friends car it just bent the gearshift rod, but others have had serious damage.
