I'm about to remove and replace the timing gears and the front engine plate on
my 1972 455 engine.
Do I need to make sure that the #1 piston is at the top dead center position,
before I pull the harmonic balancer? Will the timing gears and harmonic
balancer slide back into there correct position autmatically. I have a 1972
CSM and it does not require that the engine be a TDC.
The CSM states that the oil pan must be removed also, is that correct?
Any and all advice is welcomed.
