Carb question/Socket size

[Psyonyde]

Anybody know what size socket I'll need to take the carb off my 83 big red? I dont have a metric set, so I'm wondering.

It will probably need a 10mm wrench for the bolts between the carb. and intake or an 8mm wrench for the bolts between the intake and engine. I don't think a socket will fit in there. There should be a philips head screw on a clamp for the airbox hose. Be remember that with old bikes someone could have changed sizes on you.
