the gasket between the cylinder head and block is weeping a little oil, and i was wondering if there was a way to retork the head bolts without removing the cam? Would there be a customized socket or wrench to do that? thanks, Jay

All you have to do is remove the decompression assembly by unhooking the oiler line and the hold down nuts on the valve cover studs. Unhook the linkage at the back of the head and it will come off the head as an assembly and then you can set your valves. It only takes a few minutes to remove it.
