Does anybody have the dimensions of the FORD FE distributor drive gear.? The boss above the gear, how wide =OD. As I remember it used a 1/8" dia. roll pin+, but how long
A part number would be a great help? I'm looking to replace the distributor drive gear pin with a slightly tougher coiled spiral roll pin. Originally, It was a split spring pin and that broke with out much effort in 2002. The MSD coiled spiral roll pins that I bought in 2002 lasted fir 15 years. Then they came two to a package and were on a MSD display at local Schucks auto parts store. I figure the drive gear areas are almost identical to factory. I just want a little tougher pin to turn the distributor and oil pump. Mallory and MSD web sites don't show the pins and I didn't find the drive gear for Ford FE stuff. I just want the pin , coil and box are fine
