Metric or standard?

I changed the exhaust on the vette and the instructions called for metric wrenches.

Are all the parts metric or a combo of metric and standard sizes?

Seems to be a combo, like most GM vehicles.

If you work on your Corvette much, have a selection of SAE and Metric wrenches and sockets. Oh yeah, don't forget allens and torx too.

YUP.. Those all come in handy

i got the huge craftsman set for around $175 and it came with a bazillion different tools. and has the huge powdercoated looking number and sizes on them for easy selection. added that to the bunch of miss match i allready had and dont think i'll get stuck without now

and warranted for life. cant beat that for so little $$$
