Danny, I hope I didn't lead you astray. In your post #327 the key looks offset, I even said it could be an illusion. Glad the key way is OK and looks like you've found your problem with the cam gear.

Borrow a puller. Don't some auto parts stores loan tools? I THINK what you are going to find is a damaged key, hope the keyways are OK. If it is use an oilstone to dress the burr, not a file. I'm fairly sure any sbc key is the same. Have a buddy that's a machinist? Everybody does.

In your bottom pic it looks like the key is clocked. I HOPE that's an illusion. If not the key is about to shear.

Heater core should tell if it's a BB. What about the tire pressure decal?

Not trying to make you run in circles, but take a good look at the distributor weights. With the carb modification he may have put light springs and heavy weights in there. It was a common thing to do.

For those that have used Evaporust or CLR, should rags be soaked and left laying on surface for a while? How long? I have a project I need to do this to. I don't want to peal original paint off either.

The term Knucklehead comes to mind when I see stuff like this.

Danny, try a little white vinegar on the chrome. Soak a rag with it and tape it on for about 24 hours. Then use some baking soda water to neutralize it.

Probably/maybe know him by sight, but not name. I'm the rookie, mostly stand around and look good. I belong to EMMR, who does the certification, try to help out. Not an HR member.

Now, if it just won't rain!
[/quote] What is that supposed to mean? It never rains during Fall meet. I usually help with the race car certification Friday AM in the stadium. I would love to get together after that.

If you want to join a region, which you probably should, I strongly suggest G-burg. We can take this off line if you want? Hershey has a waiting list among other things.
