Default Question about Rollmaster installation.

I was dry fitting the oil pump and timing set along with the Rollmaster setup. I noticed that without the front cover gasket in place the bolts that hold the oil pump on, interfere with the front cover. I then tried it with the gasket in palace and it seemed OK. Is it that close??? :crazy:

Yes, the added shims behind the pump make it a very tight fit. Its a real nice chain though :)

yes, that is the correct fit. very tight, but good. Nice chain, isnt it!!! I will be installing these on all jobs i do. before you put the crank pulley on, you might want to consider keying the crank, even if you're not S/C. I just did mine for the added insurance.
