Looking for a mechanic in the Kansas City metro to help with replacing a timing chain, Does anyone know someone?:

Omega to be honest with you I'm pretty sure that you can do the timing chain yourself if you have the time. Its not as difficult and complex an operation as it may look. Get all the parts first (chain kit, gaskets ect), most of which can be bought fairly easily find some spare time and replace it.

I did my timing chain with the help of Z train about a month ago or something. Its actually a fairly straight forward process. Just remember to get the car to TDC (there's write ups someplace about it here) before you start and where each bolt goes. While everything is off you can clean it and get rid of all the sludge (if you have any). It took the two of us about two days to get it all done. (And that was with the running around to get certain gaskets..)

I don't know if this was the answer you were looking for, but I'm just expressing my opinion.
