at this point the biggest obstacle to overcome is removing the crank hub to repair the timing chain guide I broke when i pulled the head out. I managed to find the original Baum Tools for the job but that'll cost me $250.
have you guys ever seen a design for a home made crank pulley holder? i've got access to a welder and some basic machining stuff. i could make one. but i really need to do it this week. i need to order something today or tomorrow or otherwise have a plan to make something.
i swear this could derail the entire project.
