I drilled my timing cover and tapped it 5/16nf and used a long allen to turn the spring loaded plunger into a thrust button..tighten the allen home,back it off a 1/4 turn,.oo5 end play,problem fixed

Had the same problem with thrust,upgraded to a bronze and new crank gear,still had the issue.Im running high compression and a C grind cam,figure a greater thrust a by product of higher valve load.
