The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Timing on Model A w/B Distrib....UPDATE & REPAIR!!!

After the B engines, were introduced, rather than make two different covers for an A replacement, both covers had a raised oval boss. The model A service replacement cover had the hole for the timing pin drilled at the lower end of the raised boss. The actual B cover had the hole for the timing pin drilled at the upper end of the raised oval boss.
