Yes. You will need a degree wheel if you decide to degree your cam.
And a dial indicator, a piston stop to locate true TDC, and preferably a solid lifter to measure off of.

Another point being like in this case it is an unknown and unknown spec. No idea what to degree it to. Yep better pull a number out of your A&& and that will be fine, it is degreed now. Quote:
This is a performance website so..
Whoopie Poopie this is a performance sight, that being the case it is an unwarranted question for it being a stock engine. No more non performance questions asked here. Oh better run right out and degree that driver too because coming from the factory it wasn't. Suprising that they even run not being degreed.   BTW: if it makes you feel better by all means go ahead and degree it. But for a driver you won't gain squat.
Keep reaching for straws there.
Knowing the installed CL is important.
A stock engine will have a published number, but hey, don't let that spoil your "fun" in being contrary.

Do what ever turns you little fingers on your crank. But don't go telling some one that in order to replace a timing chain that htye have to go out and buy a bunch of equipment that they will only very likely only use once. PS: I am not groping at straws here but it sure seems like you are. I actually wonder if you have ever done or if you are a text book mechanic.
