That is way beyond my simple tools, these also look like art, great!
Are you sure it is home made haha It really looks like a engineered solution to me, same as the 3D printed rear seal installation tool from...
My 355 has been converted in the past, with a 348 roof with steel connecting bar over the bulkhead, and 348 manual spider seats without the heavy...
Living in The Netherlands, I am shocked seeing this. And I see no reason at all to crush it, even if it has no VIN. (No speed ticket can cause...
Haha, I even made a mistake in describing my own tools...The stand for the magnetic holder is not for measuring TDC, but for the micrometer for...

Thanks all for the explanation and advise. I now understand that it was a coincidence that the pin needed to go into the one hole that cannot be...
Thanks both, so I should be able to find a combination when disregarding the sprocket mark, great. And installing a second pin is a good idea, as...
