Another vote for doing it according to spec. It's just not worth the risk!
Even if it doesn't snap completely, you might lose a tooth or skip one, leading to rough idling, detonation, or pre-ignition. Ever had two stereos playing the same thing slightly out-of-sync? If you think that sounds bad, wait'll you hear an engine with skipped timing!
Just get it done. And probably not at that mechanic...
