Have you got a cam lock attached to rear? Normal threads as far as I remember. A cheap set of Torx in a 1/2 inch drive will beat a good 3/8 but I guess it depends how cheap :-)

Yes the Cams are locked.
I've had this Lisle set for 20+ years thought is was a good set used it last fall when I replaced the head on the car and one time before that when I replaced all the cam seals on the original engine head.
Broke one T55 Lisle then 1 from an old Craftmade set...I know I have another in 1/2 drive now to find it...
Just had to check and confirm that the threads are normal.

Thanks
