Piece of piss. When ive done them ive just locked the cam then changed the belt. You should have it done in 1 hour and a half.

Make sure you tap the cam pully off so it spins. Or it can chew the belt up.

Well said matey.
Its a free floating top pulley which makes the timing even easier.
Ive got a piece of paper that you get with the ford tbelt kit that shows you how to remove and fit the belt. I will take a pic of it and send you it if you need it.
