The dowel should be a VERY snug fit in the cam. If for some reason when you install yours and it is a slip fit, you might want to put a couple of "pricks" (sorry) on it with a sharp punch, then use red locktite on it. It must not wobble in the bore, or stick out above the surface of the installed eccentric. If it is necessary to tap or drive it with a hammer, be careful to not drive out the cup plug that covers the cam bore behind the flywheel.
