in regards to the quality of that specific CAS im not sure on that one, i know i got mine from holden for about the same price.

i have got a very brief description from the gregory's manual, remove crankshaft pulley, disconnect the wiring from CAS, insert screwdriver behind the shield adjacent to retaining studs and lever shield from timing cover gently, remove retaining bolts and remove CAS, check the interrupter blades at rear of crankshaft pulley for damage (if damaged replace) reassemble and apply locktite to retaining bolts.

you'll need a puller to get the balancer of the crankshaft. yuo'll also need a 24mm socket (i think) with a decent breaker bar to get the balancer retaining bolt undone

also check that the air gap on the cas matches the gaps on the balancer else you will be doing it again
