I installed in my fox a pro billet distributor for my 302 carburated h/o 5.0 and I changed the stock oil pump for a high volume oil pump. Now my distributor will not stab all the way down an it sits about 3 1/16 higher than block , it as if oil rod is to long know , has anyone came across this issue before ?

 

see which way the center of the bottom of your dist. points, then take a long reg screw driver and stick it in the whole that the dist plugs into and turn the oil pump deal so they line up, then try pluging the dist into said hole

 

Its not like a chevy distributor the has a slot , this 302 has a rod with a hex tapered end on rod side going into distributor.

 

doh how does the new dist compare to the old one side by side?

 

bump the engine over a little bit with the solenoid switch while you are pushing down on the dizzy ..do not have the switch on ...

 

Ok I will try that thanks again

 

Do you have the original dist. and can you compare it to the new one to make sure they are exact matches?

 

this ....well thats what I asked afew days ago. I was thinking the neck might be a little on the large size or it has a burr on it
