Tools for m52 head gasket replacement

[monkeytaco]

Anyone have the tools I need? I would love to borrow them...they will cost more than $300 new. I'm poor and I'm doing this right, so who's got them to lend?

Flywheel Locking Tool
VANOS Rigid Chain Tensioner
Camshaft Holding Tool/Fixture
Cam Sprocket Turning Spanner Rotation Tool

My money's on Roland having them somewhere in his somehow-not-legally-considered-a-shop garage.

I should have them somewhere. Make sure you rebuild your vanos while you have it apart.

I was planning to rebuild vanos too, I'm trying to get the parts together. Hopefully I can get this thing done sooner rather than later.

Word. I'll see if I can find the tools tomorrow after class. Must. Clean. Garage.

Thanks, you are the man!

what day do you need them specifically?

[monkeytaco]

I don't have all my gaskets and parts yet, I expect to order them this weekend so then the following weekend will probably be the work weekend.

Okay, let me know. They're on loan to someone else atm, but I can get them back for a few days if needed, or I might be able to borrow a set for you.

We have all the Beisan VANOS stuff in stock at SCR. You can buy the parts or I can rebuild a unit and exchange it for yours.

Also.. I may have a set of S52 cams available. Maybe.

How much for rebuilt vanos and that set of cams???? :)
