Impact driver works best, but be careful to not over tighten or you will strip the anchor.

To attach a 2x4 to a concrete block wall, I would recommend using Tapcon concrete screws that are at least 1-3/4" long. This length will ensure adequate penetration into the concrete block for a secure hold. You could also consider using 2" long screws for added holding power, especially if you are attaching something heavy to the 2x4. Be sure to use the appropriate size drill bit, which is typically included with the screws.
