why do you need a dial indicator to check chain stretch? You simply
rotate the engine around till you line up with TDC on the crank, then
slowly turn it till the lines on the cam shaft line up, then look at the
crank and see how many degrees you are off.

Bought
a dial gauage and want to test the stretch and timing while I am in
there.
Anyone now exactly what size threaded piece with thread size I need or
can
describe it to bolt into engine to hold the
dial indicator. I scimmed through the 616 and 617 engine manual quickly
