I'm about to finish my MegaJolt installation - it's all up and running, just need to remove the dizzy and its drive shaft. Haynes details the removal of the dizzy itself (says basically put it into TDC, unbolt and remove it!), but doesn't mention the drive shaft.
Anything I should be aware of before I give it a go?

using a 5/16 unf long bolt you can screw it into the end of the driveshaft ,then withdraw the driveshaft ,it will rotate as you pull as it follows the bevel drive gear on the camshaft .
does the megajolt use another method of timing ? if so you need to cover the hole left by the dizzy removal

Thanks very much!
I've already got a plug for the hole - the MegaJolt uses a spoked wheel for timing (in my case, a machined crankshaft pulley).
