flathead cam bearing tool

[L-head]

Pete posted the correct diameter for the inner shell of the cam brg driver as 1.795 I need to make one, but I need to know the diameter of the shoulder that "drives' the brg in. If it's too large, I don't want to drive the tool into the brg bore and stick it in the block. Thanks.

I took worn cam and turned flange to fit through block, cut off cam after second bearing, have used it many times

Or you could buy one from Mac VanPelt, http://vanpeltsales.com/FH_web/flathead_tools_forsale.htm

I just measured a block - the bore is 1.928".
