hey guys
motor is a roller block 5.0, cam is a TFS stage 1. the timing cover, fuel pump eccentric, etc is from a 66 289.
now the problem is that the dowl pin in the front of the cam is not long enough to extend out past the face of the cam gear and into the hole on the eccentric. i used the longer of the two pins that was supplied with the cam, cause it said that was the one for an early model. the eccentric kinda just barely touches the pin, and is appearing to hold tightly.
do i need to pull this out and get a longer pin? or will i be ok? and if i do need to pull it out, how should i go about doing that?
thanks in advance,
TJ
