Thanks!
One 3/8 inch drive should do it. The most you'll need to torque anything is 35lb-ft. And for the smaller bolts, it should be accurate enough to get you in a safe range.
Another tip, you should use grease, assembly lube or loctite on every thread. I use loctite on the crank bolts and grease on everything else. It will help you put the right amount of torque on the bolt and keep the bolt from loosening while riding.
