Perhaps they assume the plate is worn and replacing it will help to prevent=
cam =E2=80=9Cwalk=E2=80=9D (which can possibly cause erratic ignition timi=
ng issues). Or maybe there is a thickness difference from early SBF engines=
and later engines? Perhaps the oiling slots were modified for better oilin=
g??? Anyway, these are the only things I can think of that MIGHT be the rea=
son. Hopefully someone has a more definitive answer.

Subject: [Tigers] Cam Thrust Plate
Hi,
I bought an Edelbrock 7820 timing chain set to go on my 260 and the instruc=
tions say to remove the original cam thrust plate and spacer and replace it=
with Ford thrust plate # C9OZ-6269-A. These instructions do not explain =
WHY the plate needs to be replaced. I called Edelbrock and the guy I spoke=
to was useless. I pointed out that the Ford part number they listed appea=
rs to be obsolete and his response was to send me a link to Ebay where an o=
ld one is for sale. I've found some other vendors that have replacements f=
or this number. Does anybody know why a different thrust plate would be re=
quired for the Edelbrock timing chain set?
Thanks,
Joe Brown
