Unfortunately, I had overlooked the need for this tool to move the cams from one head to another. Anyone local have it that I can borrow?

Default I wish i could find my home made one. I made one out of a bolt and a piece of scrap metal prolly 2"

-2.5" in length and 1/2-3/4" wide-ish. i just tightened the bolt with a nut under the scrap and the bolt head on the other side to hold it in place (just loosely tightened). The bolt hole is a common size and you just need to rig something to push it down as you screw the bolt in.

This might not make much sense reading it but it was a very easy tool to make. If i find it, i'll snap a pic of it and post it up.

I used a bolt and ovesized washers to grab the tensioner's body.

Sorry Mark, but if you need someone handy with a bottle opener I should be around Monday.
