What do most people go for?

And the overall procedure is?

1. Drop the gear box (it is a Tip in this case)
2. Lock the cams in place
3. Access the cover plate
4. Remove the bearing with special tool
5. Install new one
6. Replace cover plate
7. Undo cam locks
8. Check timing
9. Install gear box.
Avoid all the BS in this thread & go direct to the original innovators of this technology LNengineering.com read all you can on the FACTS & choose the way you want to go. Why gamble on installing it yourself? Take it to the most experienced shop in your area for this critical procedure.
