How exactly do you get the dist in? Its a VERY tight squeeze to get the first part of the case in. I cant get it to go all the way on.

Odds are you need to turn the rotor...this will let the gear engage into the cam gear and drop down..

I would anti-seize around the block...the mother will oxidize over time and stick like a mofo...Lube up the o-ring to..

I got it not long after I posted this, but thanks anyway. The spot I was stuck on it the FIRST spot that touches the block when you are putting it in. The rotor was still turning freely. I just lubed everything up real good and worked it in.

Guero is having nasty thoughts again.

I think you scared the guys who posted on my thread too mang. They didn't know what to make of what you said.

That was my point. We were cruising along on page two, and then after you posted there were a couple more posts and that was it. I think the guys were too busy throwing up to type.

J/K with ya man. I appreciated the encouragement. Seriously.
