Cam Shaft Removal
Here we are. Oil pan is removed and the block is on its face on a towel on the bench. Don says the next step is to remove the cam shaft by first "removing the 7/16 bolts behind the big gear on the flywheel end." That will be a problem because this baby is frozen solid. So, no movie-movie of the crank to rotate the gear so that I can get to the bolts.
Time to ask a question: What is my next step? Do I remove the crank shaft to allow me to turn the cam gear so that I can then remove the cam shaft. Is there some tribal law that I will break or unintended consequence for the approach? ...and go.
