you guys need to get your thinking caps on. the gears position is fixed in relation to the block and i'm not talking about moving the shaft/gear relationship a couple feet. use your gray matter,...if you have any.
A bit brusque but accurate. Yes, the oil pump shaft engagement would decrease at the expense of increasing the distributor shaft engagement. The position of the gear remains fixed. What bothers me about situations like this is that out of the millions of B and RB made, why would this be necessary on this particular motor and none of the others? Moving the shaft would work but is this masking a more serious problem? Is this just a band-aid for something else?
