Default How to adjust valves on a GSR?

Do any of you guys have some pointers on adjusting the valves on my gsr? Its nearly impossible to get a wrench in there to tighten the lock nut. I'll appreciate any tips you can give me.

my vtec supplement says to use a "tappet adjustment wrench" whatever the heck that is.. its for b16a1 but im sure its the exact same as b18c1.

Also states that the cyl you're working on should be at TDC and the cam gears aligned where the up marks point in the upward direction and the grove matches horizontally right between the cams.

I can get a pic of the alignment if u PM me your email.

No I'm good as far as how to do it.. its just the vtec head has the valves way down in and its next to impossible to get my wrench on it. I might have to go pick up a cheapy wrench and just bend it so it will clear.. When I did an ls it was cake.
