don't impact it back on!!! May break the cam.

What cam is it?? Some have hex heads built into the middle of the cam you may use, and some have holes to help with t-belt installation. If this isn't the case, must have D series or something, then stick it in a vise with SOFT JAWS...ie, aluminum faces to keep from scratching the crap out of it. Or stop by a local garage and slip a dude 5 bucks for lunch, it will take him 2 seconds to zap it off

Classic and there is always someone to do this

Or get a bench clip, you know those huge clamps that are bolted to a bench, and get some wood between the metal of the clamp and the cams. Clamp it down slowly and just tight enough to loosen the bolt. GL.
