Hi guys, seems M40 timing tool sets vary a great deal in price and are a little tricky to find. How much should i pay for the tools and where should i buy from. Thanks

I wouldn't bother, I use an 8mm drill bit or long 8mm bolt to locate the flywheel and a set square to line the cam up with the top of the head.

Cheers,
