Re: Rebuilding my Flathead random questions
Moving right along. Got then pistons and crank
all re assembled and measured out. Everything was within spec! Onto the next issue. I started putting the timing cover on but noticed the cam gear is recessed and this caused me alarm so I grabbed my distributor. Sure enough, the distributor gear is not long enough to engage the cam. Surely I can’t be the first to run into this issue? Looking at my stock cam, the slot is basically flush with the end of the cam gear. On the new heat and cam, the slot on the cam is about 1/2” to 3/4” recessed so the distributor gear won’t engage. HELP? google didn’t help much! First photo is stock cam.
