331 Carb Build - Cam Sprocket washer

342 Views 13 Replies 6 Participants Last post by  strokeme
Hello all. Having some trouble with the cam sprocket washer. I have the OEM washer, which is quite thick, but used a 3/8" bolt. I can't seem to drill this washer out to the 7/16 size needed for the comp cams camshaft. What has everyone done? Is there an ARP washer out there that replaces this?

Thanks a lot

Yes, ARP offers a bolt and washer, FTI carries them too.

Yes sir.
Thanks. Trying to order, won't let me enter a credit card number.
Thanks ordered. Another question, regarding distributor gear material type. I ordered a distributor for a 85 (I think these were roller cam motors), still with duraspark igntion. Does this distributor have the correct gear for my comp cams camshaft? Thanks
LMR sells a duraspark dist with a steel gear for roller cams.....
Thanks. But a distributor for an 85 should be steel geared right??
Looks good from the pic. Would have a rougher texture in the area where the pin is pressed through.

Supposed to be. I have ordered from parts stores where wrong gear was on.
So, what is the verdict on thread locker on this bolt? Blue? What should I torque it to?
