I did it with 5/16 oak wooden dowels .79 cents at home depot
didnt even need them either. Once I got the crank pulley bolt off everything else was pretty straight forward.
BTW thank god don told me to heat up the crank pulley bolt. I had an IR impact gun going at the crank pulley bolt and it still didnt come off till I got some MAP gas and once it was warm it came out easy as pie.
I spun the cam though used the wooden dowels but honestly I didnt need them the stock cam came out very easy and the new cam went in very easy. Seemed to take a long time to do but I got it done. Still waiting to get the valvesprings back from pac so I can get the valve covers back on and put the pan/tranny back on and the new motor mounts on and get it back in the car, should only take a day to do that I hope.
