My son and I have been working on this engine for a couple of weeks now. It is a project car he found pretty cheap. Has anyone of you tried this without the special tools to lock the cams and set the timing chain depth?
I know there are ways to lock down the cams and crank to keep them from moving. I see no way around using the tensioner tool. Please enlighten me if there is. I am pretty sure it has been done in some way.
he will have to save up and buy the tools if there is no other way around it, but have any of you had success without it?
