    I wonder if a GM dealer ship would have that alignment tool?

    If your doing a 5.7 why dont you just get a 5.7 crank?

    either way....need the tool/crank it would be cheaper to go with just a new ring, cause the cranks are the same. Although if i went with a 5.7 crank i wouldnt have to have the rotating assembly rebalanced.. Decisions....decisions

    Good call. Here's the service information.

    "•Use the J 7872 in order to measure the crankshaft runout at the front and rear intermediate journals.
    •Use the J 7872 in order to measure the runout of the crankshaft rear flange.
    •Use the J 7872 in order to measure the runout of the crankshaft position reluctor ring. Reluctor ring runout should be measured 1.0 mm (0.04 in) below the ring teeth.
    If the reluctor ring has runout in excess of 0.7 mm (0.028 in), replace the crankshaft."


    No tool number given.
