    want to borrow cam removal tools

    doing s50 cams in my m50, if anyone has the special tools to do it let me know if i can borrow them and you will get a 12pack of whatever in return.

    thanks.

    or if you want to help let me know, everyone is welcome. food/beer on me.

    You don't need special tools to remove them. I may be wrong, but I'm fairly sure the only special tool you need is when finding tdc and getting the cams aligned(special tool that holds them in place). I did my cams without any tools. Just aligned myself.

      I know there are markings for tdc, read a wrench can hold them in place(two person job)

      Ok glad to hear. Thanks brotha

          remove your bearing cap nuts in sequence though, if you don't you risk loading your cams unevenly and cracking them

            I got a fender roller now! LMK if you need me to roll your fenders or want to rent the tool from me locally.
