Default Crank Pinning Help!

Do any of you guys have a crank pinning tool that you can get the dimensions off of? It looks like the spacer is around 2" in diameter with a 5/8 hole in the center. The actual pin hole looks to be about 7/8" from the center to the center of the 5/8" bolt hole. I can make one of these up and I would rather make one before I have the car apart. Thanks.

Crank pin tools are like a-holes. Everyone has one, but no one wants to show you theirs.

I would disregard that last post and wait for someone to sell/rent/lend one to you.. remember these people paid for these units and if you really want one you will get it by one of the three examples I just put up.

It turns out they are pretty cheap too, I have one on the way from Vortech that was only $65. If you want to wait a week or two I can sell you mine.

Good going Bob. I appreciated the use of it last February.
Thanks again,
