David: If your B is a 66 and you have the original air filters then you
will find that the long bolts (4 of them) that affix the air filters are
the size required to bolt into the center of the dizzy drive gear. I use one
all the time for in & un- installing the gear frequently. In fact I have it
hanging over my work benck with a tag that indicates it is the "dizzy gear
removal tool."
