Default Custom Made LT1 Water Pump Drive Seal Tools. 6/19 GP DONE

6/19/09. All tools have been Sold. GP is finally over. Thanks to all who purchased one

As far as I know, besides kent moore tools, no one makes the proper tool for installing the the water pump drive seal into the timing cover. Sure you can use a socket, or a sharpie pen body, but the kent moore style tool is very nice. However the kent moore tool comes at a hefty price ($60+), and I'm not even sure you can get it without buying the whole kit.

They are similar to the kent moore tool. I had them drawn up in autocad and then produced on a CNC machine

They are made from aluminum and will be a lot cheaper.

Price is $10.25 Shipped in the U.S. I hate to be mean, but for those in Canada, $11.50 shipped so I can ensure proper postage If international overseas I would have to get an estimate first. (UPDATED PRICE 6/1/09).

Batch 2 has been exhausted. Batch 3 on its way. Batch three has been exhausted.

PM me for my paypal address or mailing address. Include Forum name in payment, so I know who you are! (to prevent trollers from spamming my email)

This thing is awesome! Can't wait to use it on my Dad's Roadmaster. Fast shipping, came in in about a week and it looks to be perfect for its use, plus it is sturdy as hell! Not no flimsy plastic.

All tools sold! I can do a third batch but it would have to be a smaller number of tools unless enough people are committed. Which means unless I have another 80 buyers, the price would increase to $10.25 shipped in the US since a smaller number of tools would be made.

I have 25 more tools coming within the week for all of those that have Pm'd me. Ddue to the smaller number of tools run, the cost had to go up. It didn't go up by much though. New price to US and Canadian buyers is listed on the first page (10.25 and 11.50). I can take prepayments as I did before and when the tools arrive they will be immediately shipped out.

Third Batch is Done, and will be in my hands within 2-3 days. Now is the time to get one if you haven't already. I probably will not be making anymore for awhile.
