$.60 worth of wooden dowels did the trick on my cam swap... no expensive tools were used

If you don't understand my pretty pictures, I'm not going to waste my time trying to explain

This weekend if you want to come by.....I need to see your vette anyhow!
I will start Sat morning with tear down and see if I can get it done, but I have plans in the evening. I imagine I will have to finish up on Sunday.

Making progress. Got to pulling the crank pulley, and now I'm thinkning I shoulda gone to Autozone to get the stupid puller. I used the ones Oreilly has, the big one was too big and the little one......well, on the little one the big bolt walked and bent. Going to pick up the right puller and get to it.
