The starnuts take a standard M6 bolt, usually with a low profile head and a regular head is just as acceptable.
As for holding the fork you can put the fun between your legs and hammer it in, while holding the fork with your hand as well.
Totally uncut Winwood muddy--Actually about 140 mm worth of spacers + stem--and stem is 120mm@125 degrees--only ridden by old man to church on Sundays--no speeds in excess of 45mph. Insists on drop bars because they remind him of when he was young stud. Sucks but what are ya gonna do?
This is what I did last time--sounds easier than it is.
