Dan's (other Dan) issue was the mfr of the timing set sent him the wrong cam gear - it was a gear meant for a torrington bearing behind it ---- there was no torrington bearing in the box - as Dan had ordered the standard gear set - the cam gear was in the wrong box basically.
Dan put it together and didn't check the cam end play - which turned out to be over .030" - enough for the cam to walk into the distributor gear too far - and kill both gears, cam and dist.
Dan is getting a new roller cam, AND a new distributor gear.
Another expensive lesson learned.
