This one pic "looks like" it had some ear spread on the right side. If so, that would have pushed the opposite side, where the ware is, closer to the guide hole.

Thanks Clay,

If you get an opportunity look at the video posted last weekend. You can see that there is no irregular movement then. I would speculate that the marks happened at a higher RPM during the first Pulls on the first Dyno runs before Joe received the motor. That was when the bushing in the distributer was bad.

Just a reminder to everyone: This may not be discussed on the thread enough but please Remember:

When Paul did the first Dyno on the motor it had a major failure from oil starvation which resulted in wiping out the bottom end of the motor. Can't say for sure but if I understand correctly he only replaced the crank rods and bearings. I sometimes wonder if this somehow is connected to our tapping problem ?
