Default Re: 8BA crank in 59AB?

The only other thing to note is the crank gear on the 8BA crank has opposite thrust to the 32-48 cranks. My recommendation (if you're running a 59x front mount distributor and timing cover) is to put the 59x crank gear on the 8BA crank - this puts the thrust toward the block. This also lets you use the 59x timing gear and cam . . .
