Thanks for the response. A couple of more questions then:
- what is the right size pulley for the engine? and how much clearance
should there be between the pulley and the subframe?
- yes there is a small timing mark on the pulley. Not sure where it's at
when the rotor arm is at #1, but I'll check. And yes, the engine does run!
Thanks again for your help.
Bob

|The early front covers had the pointers below the pulley. Has the pulley
|got a timing mark? If so where is it when the rotor arm is
|pointing at No.1
|plug lead - assuming the engine runs?

|
|No, they arrived March 67.
