Hi, I'm trying to prepare to do a valve adjustment and saw that most people used that special 10mm+ScrewDriver tool, is it necessary? I saw someone suggest using a 10mm crows foot, but that was on a different engine, I have a GSR B18C-1
Also, do you need the angled feeler gauges, or is there enough space to use just the flat ones? Trying to avoid buying extra tools and just using what I have.
Thanks!

I would highly recommend both tools as they make the job much easier and faster.
Not exactly a lot of room in the head for valve adjustment.

You can get away with using a screw driver and wrench but the tool makes it easier.
I have a brand new set of feeler gauges and the tool never used PM me if interested.
The tool is reasonable in cost
and it can be used on most other Hondas too, it's paid off for me being able to use it on D and K series cars in my household.

And J, don't leave them out. I feel bad for anyone doing valves on one of those in chassis.
I guess C series too. And L and R.
Hell, all Honda automotive engines.
