Sounds great Geoff!
I should be home most of the day.. have to pick up my
son at 2:50 from school. But will be home right after that.
Car is still in the driveway. Torque wrench ready.
Any chance of borrowing the oprv alignment tool over
a Sunday? working at a dealership I have every Sunday off.
If not then I may just buy one.

Hey Thad!
Given my profession I tend to want to keep all my cars running.. little easier since I have most of the tools to do so. Your car will need alot more work to
get the 5speed conversion done.. but I am more than willing to help.
I am fine with wrenching in the dark.. have a drop light and as long as you know what we are looking for we are good to go. What size is the nut that
holds the oprv? I brought a general array of wrenches with me.. I could pull it,
if it does not require the tool to do so, during the day today.

Thanks for the link!
Geoff.. in a wierd twist of irony.. I had completely forgot
I had plans this evening myself. Maybe Sun. We can try
the crank bolt.. if you are available. Since this is not a
high priority fix as it is not my daily driver it can be put off
until we can both hook up. I would prefer someone who
knows how to use the tool to be with me.
