Oh don't forget to protect your radiator
Hey 2001LC, Thanks for the reply and the tips! I have a 3/4" drive set but I will have to get a chain wrench. That is a great idea! I did the serpentine belt a bit ago so I can put that on the pulley to protect it. Great idea.
I do have a question about the timing. Since I have attempted to crank this thing over a million times with the timing belt disengaged, how do I get the cams back in correct time? The cams spin twice for every one crank turn so there is a chance I could put one or both cams out of time 180 degrees.
