Default Installing my Intake and Tbody... Question...
I'm installing my Z06 intake and Shaner Ported Tbody and the Tbody didn't come with sensors on it... the torx screws holding the sensors has a little nipple in the center of it, making a traditional torx driver NOT work... anyone know where I might get ahold of this tool and what it is called?

It's also called a "tamper-proof" torx.
