Like almost everyone else it seems, I am pulling my gearbox to change the clutch. I barely got that one triple square socket head cap screw off. It seems that someone had previously buggered it up with the wrong tool, or an air wrench.

So, I was thinking about replacing with a standard allen type socket head cap screw - any negatives to this other than being unofficial P-car OEM standard?
