Terrible, can you get at the bolts to get them out or not ?

Yeah shouldn't be a massive issue it was going to Steve jones for uprated head gaskets and a cam belt kit and water pump anyway so the cylinder heads needed to come off it's just happening sooner rather than later now

Shame but as you say, not a major issue then.
Pushes the work needed further forward, it is always a good thing.
