I have to reset the timing again on me car this Saturday after I replace some motor mountage.
The only tool I don't have is a CAM locking plate, and if anyone around Toronto/east end (pickering, ajax, whitby) has one that I could borrow, it would be greatly appreciated!
I used a piece of steel plate, I forget the thickness, just tried a bunch till i found one that didn't wiggle, worked fine

Yeah, i'm thinking that will be my backup.
No guarantee i can find a suitable piece of metal to do the job though!
Then get metal that's close and shim as necessary with a couple feeler gauges.
10mm Craftsman open end wrench works quite nice.
Or close to that will work.
Just turn it over by hand a couple time before, just to double check that the valves aren't dancing on the pistons.
