Added a pretty detailed segment on how to drill those holes properly in the timing plate. Thanks to Dave for the exacting dimensions.
Also removed the crank and pistons. You just use a very large hammer to beat those pistons out right?
Few questions come to mind, maybe I could learn here instead of bugging the engine shop?
1) Does the cam retainer come with the new camshaft, or do I have to remove the old cam gear to get the old retainer out?
2) I have never done this part before.. I always leave the freeze plugs in. This time I thought it would be better to remove them and all plugs, etc myself. My plan to remove them is to drill a hole in them, slide hammer them out. Yes, no? Are there any journal caps, or anything I shouldn't take off?
Thanks!
