Man, what a pain!!! I started the install on my Mallory Unilite today, and it was anything but smooth. I think someone mentioned "dimpling" their sheet metal to make room for the larger dizzy head. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) I hope I didn't damage the head underneath the tin. I finally got the danged thing in (or so I thought) to the point that I could rotate the dizzy, but come to find out when I went to fire it up, I didn't have it seated properly. So, after more cussing, it finally slipped all the way in--but the rotor spins freely still. I guess it's still not in all the way, huh? Last, now that my timing is completely Fuched, do I pull the valve cover and watch until #1 rocks? I have my flywheel timing mark to guide me by after that, I guess to find TDC on #1. Any advice would be warmly welcomed.
