Luke Posted March 21, 2004 Report Posted March 21, 2004 If the swap to 3.1 is not doable, does anyone know where to buy the 3.4L tools needed to rebuild (cam sprocket holder and cam timing tools)? Prefer not to use ebay, I am looking to start project soon one way or another. Thanks. Luke. Quote

93GTP Posted March 21, 2004 Report Posted March 21, 2004 Don't pay $115 dollars for those things, you can get some made very easily. Just get some 3/4" steel square stock, cut two pieces 6 inches long, and drill a 5/16 hole in the center of each. The bolt you need to use is a M8x1.25x60. Here's a pic (my pic also has tools made from 1/2" stock, which I don't recommend) Quote
kcac Posted March 21, 2004 Report Posted March 21, 2004 Where do you get square stock? Do you have to have a friend at a machine shop or can you get it from a hardware store? Quote
kcac Posted March 27, 2004 Report Posted March 27, 2004 93GTP Why do you recommend the 3/4" stock over 1/2". Just wondering...did you have problems using tools make with 1/2"? Quote
93GTP Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Well, when you drill a hole 5/16" through the center of a 1/2" piece of stock, there isnt much material left and it's super weak. Just tightening down somewhat causes it to bend. And since 3/4" fits fine it's just my preference... Quote
