Nifty looking tool Vergil. I always wondered how they did it in the day. I've levered against a block of wood on my F1 with the other end sitting on the chassis. Another method I've tried is straddling the engine with my backside to the firewall and one foot on each chassis rail while I heave with one hand on the fan and tighten the nut with the other. I'm sure it's not a pretty sight (or sound) ...
