Sorry, but I had the tool 2078 and sold it, 2078 worked a treat but found it very difficult to get the shim out of the top of the tappet bucket, save your money buying tool 2078, measure your tappet clearance, remove the cam, renew all worn shims and replace the cam this works better for me, it may sound like the long way round but wait till you have a couple of shims you can't get out and have to remove the cam anyway.
