Cam timing - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

SharkPilot · 06-22-2011

A fallen secondary screw means my engine has to be removed and the left cylinder head removed. I'm hoping I won't find more damage than can be cleaned up and smoothed over.
That means I'm going to have to set the cam timing. I have an FSM, including the LT5 suppliment along with the GM video that details the procedures. What I do not have are the tools. I have always planned to buy them but never expected to need them so soon. Is there anyone who would be willing to loan/rent their tools to me? It's a lot to ask but it would make this mini-disaster a bit easier to handle.
I would really appreciate someone's help and also any advice that anyone has for a first go at head R&R and cam timing.

Thanks,
SharkPilot
