Re: Problem: SBC Dist Install
HHmmmm; I wonder...the thought you are offering, I installed this on the engine stand, spinning the engine around to do final assembly work. Is there enough room left for it to fall when I have the motor upside down on the eng stand? Maybe this is the problem Im encountering?? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

Re: Problem: SBC Dist Install
It may feal like its hitting shaft corectly?? after you have it in, roll the motor over a little usually after the dist rotates about halfway around everything lines up and it will drop all the way in, then bring around to TDC again and make sure you are not off a tooth on the cam in relation to your fireing order.

Re: Problem: SBC Dist Install
Usually you can pull the dist up just enough to free the dist cam gear and rotate it a bit then drop it. Do it a few time and usually it will drop , giving you a idea which way to turn the oil pump with the screwdriver.
