The cam is stuck on one of my distributor shafts. Anyone have any ideas on how to free it?

While it looks bad, I think it will take a lite honing and be good to go Never scored a cylinder trining an engine over by hand before

I might have had it right the first time and it wasn’t meant to be shift I must have had a bad ring, because I now have a scored cylinder It just never ends

Yes,that would have been messy. It should have said shift

I was until I found an easier way. Loosen the lock nut and then print get the piston positioned to the point where you measure the gap. You can then tap the adjust or on the tappet until you get the proper gap. Reposition the piston to the point you normally adjust and relook. It works most...

I need to adjust my valves Anyone know what the threads per inch on a double nut tappet?

I know this won’t help the OP issue. If anyone is looking for a position for a single switch, you can replace the lower driver’s side dash rail bolt with a switch. It was done on my 29. Tudor for a switch for a rear fender mounted parking light. A pull on switch looks decent in that position...

Don't know why I didn't think of removing the first/reverse shaft. Both shafts are now out Thanks for the help

I'm rebuilding my trans tower and the send/high shaft is stuck. I can't move it forwards or backwards or rotate it. Anyone have any suggestions on how to remove it?
