Not a chance in hell because you can not center it perfectly in the hole .  :nono:

If you vary from my instructions in any way at all, you may end up with a problem, but as i said, its you car and you will know how to change the cam on your own next time .  :thumb:

If you drill the hole in the wrong place, you will be buying another $300.00 distributor which is not a big deal because they now have plenty in stock .  :lmao:

Cutting corners is exactly why your gears blew up in the first place so i don't understand the logic of wanting to do the same thing they did .  :shrug:

No dice on the bit. Rang a few engineering supply places, nothing.

No one sells or stocks them.

It's all about the numbers..

Now before you get sand in your vagina...

Hypothetically,

After i punch, heat, freeze and clean the distributor with the fur of a baby seal and everything else known to man. If i can get the holes to line up will that negate the need to drill any ?

Remember now, i said hypothetically   :shrug:

Remember now, i said hypothetically   :shrug:

First of all, you would have to determine that the hole is within maybe .0015" of the required elevation, which is about as likely as Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon havin a Beach party in my sandy crotch because its so tight.

Secondly, you can not rotate the distributor gear once it is on the shaft, otherwise it will loosen the press fit we are trying to achieve, so like Clint Estwood says, "Are ya feelin lucky...punk?".
