Been wanting to do some work on the Camaro. Today is the day…let’s see what kind of challenges I face with my lobster hand…
Putting a new chain in (mybdumb ass reused the old one when I built it…and it slaps)
And then putting a set of 4:10 gears in.
PS…wife’s car…lol
And I have found and verified 
where the damn washing machine sound is coming from…lol
It would be nice to have someone to hand down your skills to man, someone with a good back and 2 good hands that works for weed… I know someone but my back is meh, lol. Now you are doing one handed timing chain replacement…sure you ain’t Chuck Norris? Seriously inspirational glad the cut healed anyway…a pleasure reading your posts.
that seems almost as bad as my 1968 tempest… GM 350 with a …wait for it…NYLON …timing chain!! that was a big project for me at the time. i was a high school student with a craftsmen tool set. Napa would rent you the puller.
Thank you guys 
Just got the rearend out, Putting a set of 4:10s in
Ya, mostly one handed. If the doc knew I was doing this, he would flip I am sure. But, I am right handed…so it’s not all bad.
I do have a son in law, that is trying his damndest to learn it all…lol
And sometimes I forget I moved several states away and do not have what I used too for tools…lol
So, off to get a 20 ton press…lol
Yes, I was hoping against all odds, I could tap that pinion thru…but to no avail.
Now you just need some heated plates for that baby!
Hm…good idea. Post up a link …
GOOD LUCK!!! 
they are all out of stock or way too expensive since COVID kicked in.
Hm, have a pic how they are built?..I will build my own.
Big thick pressing plates.
Bore 2 holes through the middle of each plate.
Put a heating probe in one hole and a temp sensing probe in the other on each plate.
Bunch of heat resistant glue and a controller.
Boom.
I do believe, I just may have all of that laying around.
here is @ReikoX 's post on how he made his.
Oh, and the car turned out bad ass 
Those 4:10s was just what she needed…hahaha
