Timing To Win
|
We built a distributor-length measuring tool because, if the distributor gears sit too low or high on the cam gears, the gears can wear irregularly, and the ignition timing can vary or a failure can result. Once the intake is on the assembled engine, the tool is dropped down into the distributor hole and the sliding locator set on the rod. Then, that distance is measured against the distributor. On the MSD distributor, the collar can be adjusted up or down as needed, and on a factory-type distributor, shims can be used if the distributor needs to be located higher in the block. Also, with a stock wet-sump oil pump, check the oil-pump drive rod length to make sure the distributor is not pushing directly on the oil-pump gear. View Related Article
