....when I went to drop in the distributor and it wasn't even close. I ended up welding up the hole and having it fly cut on an end mill to the correct location, on my nickel.

I went with Keith on my Alum Pond 482 and it is the best decision I have ever made. i love my engine.. Rob dyno'd a few months back and it was over 615hp. It is first engine that I ever had that scares me. It is a good kind of fear..
