Chipster Report post Posted February 22, 2014 Does anyone have one of these I can borrow? From my searching I think there are a couple people on here who might have one. A new one is $170-185ish. I took the valve covers off and thought I could get in there for the head bolts with a crows foot or something similiar but no luck. Would really appreciate if someone has one that I can borrow. Applicable to countach, diablo, and murcie owners. Worst case, I do see where LS rents them per week for a fee but I would rather not feel incredibly rushed schedule wise. Thanks!

Netman Report post Posted March 8, 2014 Chip If you have a torch, you can bend an inexpensive tool to meet your needs. Harbor Freight is great for this type of stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipster Report post Posted March 8, 2014 Thanks. Chad actually let me borrow a wrench he made but there are other special tools possibly needed to grt the heads off and at this point having someone else do the rest of the work to get all the gaskets replaced and timing right is worth it to me so im trucking the engine up to my exotic shop and will be bringing it home later this month to install everything. So hopefully i am up and running early April. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my shop guy runs into an issue i may shoot you a message. He says he has another Diablo head gasket job coming soon anyways so he may pick them up himself to have. Bringing the engine up Monday so I should know next week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
