So I pulled an all niter and the dang thing still has a way to go. I can not get the ******* dist to engage the oil pump shaft for the life of me. Stupid little thing just keeps flopping from side to side.

Gotta run to the parts store to get s slightly longer bolt for the alternator. Seems the threads on this head start a 1/4 inch further into the head then my old heads did.

Suppose to use the 3924 Autolite plugs in the head, but that is not gonna work with my headers. Cylinder #5 is just a tad to close and I cant even thread it in by hand. Gotta do some searching on where I can get a shorter plug I guess.

It is not looking promising that I will make the cruise in this Sat.
