I know I took it out before, and I still have the tamper proof torx heads, but it seems the holes have shrunk on the heads. Dont ask. But anyway, what size do I need?

I don't think they are the tamper proof heads, but I could be wrong. I think they are a T15. Again, I could be wrong.

I know they are tamper proof. Atleast on mine they are. They have a raised part in the center where you can get a regular one in. But good to know its a 15. Thanks.

Plan on drilling them out, cause they are likely going to either A. Twist the torx bit into a helical bit and still not loosen, or B. the head of the bolt will snap off...

Oh, I see. So you were confused because you use the plaque on the upper intake as a grill (as in a "gridiron"). The perfect steak is cooked medium, and has a big "5.0 V8" embossed on it.
