Was not aware of that change Travis. was looking at other things like the extra bolts in the head. If it had been a snake i would have gotten bit, lol.

That being said, normally cam drive set-ups use a timing cover with the cam drive/ pump mounted on that part and a drive shaft from the cam driving the fuel pump.

If you had a BOP timing belt deal, and I do not remember if you had one or still do, did you make a stand off bracket to hold the pump and then still use the drive shaft to turn the pump?

I have seen your fabrication skills in the past on that F1R Procharger Bird FEAD System.
(FEAD = Front End Accessory Drive. And obviously some serious CAD Skills too.

I assume you fixed the "distributor movement issue" previous to the Fuel Pump Mounting exercise.

Very Nice work there Travis.
