Cambelt (Timing Belt) change on a Mk1 MR2

Does anyone know how easy/difficult it will be to change the timeing belt on the engine. I've changed 16 valve Rover Cambelts, if it is pretty similar, Could I get some sort of locking tool for the cams from somewhere other than MrT!!!

Cheers,

Leigh

Hi new to the forum so be easy on me! I wondered how much your rebuild kit was from MrT as I need to rebuild mine, and the sealing kit alone was £59+VAT on its own!?
