Updating with a crab distributor 2 Attachment(s)
I need some help on this swap. I have a '35 with an original distributor. Maintenance on the distributor can be a royal pain. I am thinking about installing a crab distributor (this is not a show car). I have a '47 timing gear cover and a spacer (pictures included). If I swap out the '35 cover and use the adapter plate will I still need a spacer for the cam gear?
Thanks Tom |
Re: Updating with a crab distributor i believe the button spacer is used when a helmet style distributor is installed on a later engine like a 59ab with a three bolt timing gear cover.

Re: Updating with a crab distributor I believe the combo you have will work.
It would be worth checking to see if the cam has been replaced. Slim chance it might be a short nose cam with a button. If it is, you can remove the button and leave off the spacer. If you don't want to change the front cover you can get a 3 bolt to 2 bolt adaptor that will allow the crab to bolt on. Mart. |
