im ripping into the 400ex morrow

[JDiablo]

well guys make me a list of tools i will need,im going to be installing a lighten freewheel,hotcams stage two,ported head and thats it of now.
My uncle is a mechanic and i work there so im just wondering this for what tools i can steal off of him for a day
What is needed to remove the freewheel?
How hard is it to get the valves adjusted right?
I've helped my uncle a couple times on car motors with the valves and with like pulleys and everything so it should be kind of simliar right?

Anyway thanks for anyone that contributes this will be greatly appreciated

Maybe you SHOULDN'T tear this apart yourself...:huh

Here's what I can come up with that you'll need:

1- Fly wheel puller(basically a bolt, not sure of the size)
2- Feeler gauges and small metric open end wrenches(for valves)
3- Metric socket set and torqure wrench
4- Metric alen wrenches(for timing mark cover)
5- Semi-perm locktite(for cam sprocket bolts)
6- Assemble lube(for the cam lobes)

i think it is defienlty time to send it out and get a 416 in it:D

the camshaft looked a lil unarly to

i thought you were doing a 460 stroker?:confused:

Finish the top end before you install the flywheel. The lightend one dosent have timing marks.
