New Intake install
By Ryan - 09/19/2002 10:30:01 PM; IP 162.58.0.136
I have a 1974 F-100 w/390

I have just replaced mt stock 2bbl intake and carb with an edelbrock performer and holley 4bbl carb. Now I can't get the distributor to fully seat. Or so I think!? The distributor meshes with the gears and oil pump drive shaft, but the upper distributor seal is only half into the intake. Seems it should drop another 1/2 inch? Is it supposed to be like this? Please HELP! I have spent hours on this supposed problem and have tried everything with no result. Seems this is how it is supposed to be?
