[QUOTE="03' White Snake, post: 16052963, member: 51916"] I heard the SBC crank socket fits our cars. I just used the crank bolt and only went clockwise. If you remove all the rockers then you do not need a cam holding tool. Take your measurements, adjust the timing, set the cams and crank back to timing chain Mark's and start again. I used the hex on the cams to get my cloyes keyways to line up. Pretty simple. Its trial and error. I made my own piston stop out of an old spark plug and 3/8 bolt. Break the porcelain out, tap the body for 3/8 thread and put a bolt in there. If you have a crank socket you only need to find TDC once, the timing wheel will be set after that. [/QUOTE]
