You don't use a socket. You use a 10 mm hex key, with the 90 degree curve cut off, and use a 10 mm socket on the other end of the cut-off key. That way, you don't have to take the cams off.
Mr. Zach Leahy, one of the two co-experts on SHO engines (there are more, I'm just kidding Zach and Mark) showed me that secret back in early 2001 when he came out here and reincarnated a bunch of SHOs for me in one week.
