Can those knowledgeable post up a list of the ZR-1 and LT5 tools with three categories:
"A" Those that are essential for building up an LT5 that cannot be readily improvised or duplicated in a typical shop.

"B" Those that are needed but can be improvised, duplicated, or worked around.

"C" Important special tools to have for the rest of the the ZR-1.

A good improvised example are the cylinder liner hold downs that HAWAIIZR-1 was asking about the other day where JeffVette and lbszr had a couple of acceptable alternatives that would do the job just fine and save having to run out an spend a lot of money on hard to find special Kent-Moore LT5 tools.

I have a home machine shop in the basement that is probably capable of fabricating most of the mechanical tools if I had sufficient details on the originals. For example Last year I produce a full set of special tools needed for rebuilding the C4 Dana 44 rearend.
