CRAGER offset distributer drive timing cover |

OK GUYS - NEED SOME HELP
I am putting togehter a t bucket that has a 428 FE motor.
I purchased a complete 671 blower assembly that was on a FE back in the 60's, but on a shelf for about 20 + years after the car was sold.
To allow the blower, the kit came with a front timing cover made by CRAGAR that moves the distributer in front onthe timing cover and angles it to the side.
I have all the pieces EXCEPT the gear that somehow bolts to the cam gear to drive the distributer in its new position.
We originally fiqured taking an old FE cam and machining the cam so it can mount to the front of the stock cam gear, but the diameter of the distributer drive gear on a stock FE cam does not fit into the opening in the cragar cover.
Has anyone seen this type of setup and know what type of gear is used ?
If not, does anyone know how much clearance can be gained by switching to a mallory distributer with a low profile cap ?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Please email me with your reply.
Thanks
Rachel
ps - if i really confused you with the above questions, i can take some pics of the cragar timing cover and email them to you if needed |
