Exclamation Mallory Distributor

Just wanted to give you a heads up.

My car died on Saturday and had to get towed home. I found the 1/8" roll pin for the distributor gear had been sheared. It appears that this is a problem due to high volume oil pumps. Mallory is going to 3/16" roll pins on there race distributors and list it also as a fix in there tech section. I pulled the distributor tonight, drilled it out and installed the 3/16" roll pin.

I hope this will help someone else, and keep them from being towed.

Thanks,

Ken M 2560
