Do you have Northern Tool is San Diego? They have a $5 27mm wrench that I bent into shape with an oxyacetylene torch. They have really good quality hand tools for cheap.

Yo.

Depending on how soon you need it, I will have my special wrench back down in SD in a few days (next week sometime)...let me know if you still need it then.

you really don't need the offset,but it does make your job easier. you can get by with a regular one, or a fractional american equivalent.

a tip i used to make a 27mm once:

go to kragen and buy a valve adjuster tool, big and stamped steel. grind a little out of the opening of it and hammer it flat. it worked.
