[QUOTE="mercurycrest, post: 9350, member: 64"] I have a tool that is easy to make up and I'd recommend each section have one in their [I]tools to lend bin[/I]. I hope I managed to post it correctly. The easiest way to make it is by using a know properly indexed set of cams. Once it is done it only takes a matter of seconds to tell if your cams are right or not and if you're [U]very[/U] careful you can do a pretty good job of aligning them with it for pressing together. In the picture the pin just above the 1/2" shaft fits snug into the slot in the cam shaft and the 3/16" square piece bolted to the rim is ground to a triangular shape where it fits into the marked teeth on the pinion. This is set up for a front cam. the brass screw that isn't being used is for the rear cam. Just swap the triangular piece from one position to the other to check front or rear cams. I hope this all makes sense... technical writing is not my forte' Cheers, John [/QUOTE]
