I don't recall the dimension, but It was in the docs I downloaded from Fordracing, and I was in spec. Also, the contact patch on the distributor gear was in the middle of the teeth.
I didn't get a dizzy gear pic, but I did get a pic of the cam gear with my little USB snake camera. It was all drenched with
oil, too.
I suspect a bad, unfinished gear from MDS, or a soft cam. Next time around, I'm thinking I want to use the bronze gear on the dizzy and change it as needed. It's a simple operation compared to changing the cam.
Thanks Brent. I'll give you a call later this morning. I'm hoping you can just set em up with what I need to do it this weekend.
