10-4. Mine seems like it has 1/4 inch of play in it when I pull on it which is more than the other side. Given that is there a shim that would tighten it up?

Rear Hub Nut Castle Bolt

I seem to have some albeit small amount of play in my rear hub. I would like to turn the castle nut some and check its torque. Anyone know the size and torque poundage?

I have my MSD box under the dash upside down. I have never had any problems. From what I have read the MSD boxes don't like heat and under the dash is cooler than in the engine bay.

I talked with the engine builder today and he indicated he would have matched them so maybe the previous owner replaced one with what he had. No big deal, I will get it right now.
