I don't know if I can bring it to Winchester as well as the 48 or not.

I can put on top of the 48 with both on the trailer, but I don't want to hurt the powdercoated frame, so for now that option is out.

If I have it back together by the time of the show I'll figure a way to bring it, probably a friend will bring it on his trailer.

If I don't get it back together in time I'll just leave it at home.

Any ideas on how to start trying to turn it over when I get that far?
I know for a B series Cummins they sell an "engine turning tool", Snap-On part number YA9565A, it's basically a pinion with a 1/2" square drive that fits a hole in the flywheel housing and meshes with the ring gear. I could make something like that from an old starter? Or just pry with a pry bar on the ring gear through the starter hole? or a big strap wrench on the crank pulley? Or?
