Rod and Crank Bearing Questions

Hello,
Can someone tell me the type of sockets needed to remove the caps off the crank and connecting rods on my 1995 900S?
Due to massive sludging that broke free from using synthetics(?)and clogging of my pickup screen, I have the oil pan off my car (engine in car) and noticed bearing shreds and a very loose #1 cylinder connecting rod.
I plan on removing the caps off the crank/rods and visually inspect the journals. I plan on replacing all bearings on the rods (after checking clearances with Plasticgauge). I really am hoping the crank survived reasonably.
With 140k on my car and really desiring a newer Turbo model (900/9-3) instead (when affordable), I hope the engine will be salvageable with just con rod bearings, but I need the correct sockets to dismantle the rod and crank cap screws.
Thanks,
George M.
