I thought the 1990-93 strut brace used Allen head bolts?

The strut tower bolts (inside bolts) on the 1987-89 bars are Allen heads. The holes in the strut towers were drilled to 1/2".

What the firewall bolts were? I don't know.

I have a 1988-89 bar in storage I can look at, but I can't say if the hardware on bar is original.
