also, how much movement should my camshaft have? It seems to be sitting in the middle of the camshaft bearings right now, but it can move forward quite a bit, so the part of the camshaft that sits in contact with the bearings sticks out about 1/4". I put in my distributor, and moved the cam back and forth, and that much movement would definately screw up the timing. thanks for any and all help.
