Ken/Alabama Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Nothing. It's like the V-8 Fords , the angle that the gears are cut causes the cam to thrust toward the rear of the block. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abelincoln Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 The front mounted distributor is bolted to the front cover, and limits cam walk to the front. I understand the gear cut also helps. Abe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
