  1. the brake upgrade looks GREAT! would love a set of those hats or the cad file. How do you like the aluminum hubs? I have a set in a box. I even bought the bearing spacers (DPR). But I have some kinda mental hang-up about the use of aluminum there. I know It's not rational.    

  2. I'll take a stab at this......

    if the "fork" like tangs on the end of the oil pump driveshafts are too long you can trim them. however this means getting the driveshaft out.  This is usually a distributor problem and not a driveshaft problem. Measure the depth of the pocket where the tangs go on each of the distributors you have. then measure a stock driveshaft and see if there is a issue. Sometimes the tangs are spread and this will make it hard to get the distributor to seat/sit down. a long bendy flashlight will show you if this is a problem.  

    If the driveshaft comes out there is something wrong. like the plastic collar that is used on the OE shaft is missing. I have never seen an aftermarket shaft that didn't use a steel collar that is pinned to the shaft. these won't come out of the block.

    I use a long flat head screwdriver to move the driveshaft around so that as the distributor drops in as it rotates on the cam gear and lines up. I know you've done this before.

    don't give up, it can be tricky. my friend does this trick...plugs out distributor in place, hand rotate engine (not starter), distributor drops in.

    sorry 'bout the bad pun....

  3. Can you not unbolt it and count the teeth? I'm guessing it's in the car right?

    I looked and didn't find 1 that has a sensor in the front. I think the ones I saw were all Z32 with 2 on the rear cover. 

    When used with fuel injection, the Davis can pull fuel or manage a DBW throttle. 

    As for the 7531, I've been around them, in my opinon, not a great solution for a street/road race car.   

  4. what year, make and model is your diff?  

    I may have one in the basement that I can look at or take apart. Or may be able to get my friend at the dealer to look and see. 

    I'm going with the clamp on the driveshaft ring. I can't order until Monday. I think he's racing
