Southampton help please!!

My mate has been a *** and not turned up with the bits I need to do my head gasket, so...

... Is there anyone in the Southampton area that has a cam locking tool and an E12 torx socket, that would be willing to drop it off and let me borrow it today?

I'm at the point now where the head can come off once I get the cams out, but can't do either coz of the missing tools!!

Thank you in advance...

I have the tools and I'm only in waterlooville, trouble is I can't get away from the kids, if you could get the car here I'd help you on the drive

but getting to you is a pain in the backside!

Thank you Sam for your offer, but my mate finally got the parts out to me.

As it sits now, the head is off, and looks like it hasn't warped

also the cam ladder is off, ready to be re-sealed and put back on. Plan tomoz is to do the cam ladder, replace the inlet manifold gasket and then hopefully get it all back together with fresh oil and coolant
