I would not attempt this until one of the more experienced members chimed in. Ok, I would, but I view mechanical disasters on my own stuff as "learning experiences". It might be safer to take to long route by did assembling and reassembling.
Haha I'm on the same page as you. Where's the fun if you don't completely f something up once in a while...

Its a 1999 car, so a 5 chain. I figure its already at TDC, so turning the engine should not cause any damage, granted I hold the exhaust cam locked in position.
