hahaha thats awesome...what about auto zone?

 

i worked for autozone, they dotn have it, trust me, or else id have it, lol, actually ima about to delet this thread, i found the tool

 

So how about posting the PN and where you got it..................

 

The ziptie method doesn't keep tension on the chain, so it doens't help. The real cam tool holds the chain up on the crank gear so it can't move. You should be able to wedge the chain in place while pulling up on it, I know I used to do the Datsun motors like that, we had a nice wood wedge with a handle on it that pushed the chain out against the head, so you could unbolt the cam gear without the chain dropping down.

 

bought mine from ebay

 

thats the one, i found it on ebay, but no one is selling it right now, i found it by someone feedback on it , i sent the guy a message i wanted to buy it, with money in hand , unless you wanna sell me yours
