Thomas head and Mallory distributor? Hi, does anyone know if the Thomas head with a Mallory distributor, 2301105, requires the distributor cam shaft to be drilled and pinned to the oil pump? If this is a "dumb" question, bear with me as about everything is a learning experience for me.
Thanks! |

Dumb question..don't know, because can not figure it out:D ! Is this 'trick' question (s) ? First you could probably substitute any head and the question would be as confusing:). Never have heard of a dist cam shaft attached to an oil pump 'drilled/pinned'. Usually, the dist/shaft has offset slots that must be matched up with dist and oil pump shafts. Mabe 'new' setup,eh :confused: |
Re: Thomas head and Mallory distributor? Hi Phil, If the mallory dist. is made for a Model A, it will have an offset slot in the bottom of its' upper shaft that will mate to top of your lower shaft.

Re: Thomas head and Mallory distributor? Phil, maybe you're confused with the one piece dist shaft, which IS pinned to the dist? Otherwise, drop in the short shaft & just stick the dist in. Bill W. ( STICK means install!)

Re: Thomas head and Mallory distributor? thanks guys, I now have a mental picture of how the distributor drives the oil pump.

This is what drives the distributor and oil pump.
