I think I forgot to mention this is a rebuild of a 383 that decided to thow a lifter into the cam grea and carnage ensued. Been trying to get enough time to assemble this for a couple of months. Been spending an hour here and there. Anyone reading this in the future - follow engineholic's method of checking the clearance! Putting the timing gear together is PERFECT! Now I have a stinking rod bolt that fell into the cam area when I was removing it from #2 piston. I've tried different magnets and other tools to try and get it out. Looks like I'm going to need to remove the timing, cam gear, cam retaining plate, and pull the cam to get it  |
