So, My cam thrust plate was damaged (long story). I ordered a replacement from headbolts.com, but the replacement came with a 'spacer' and a wider opening than my orig. plate.

does anyone know where to find a replacement plate? (Jim carter is on backorder)

You could try www.chevsofthe40s.com

www.fillingstation.com

or even NAPA since the same plate was used into the early 60's.

i ended up using the plate and the spacer. IT looks like the spacer is included to make it easier to install the cam gear.

Everything looks good so far. It was too dark to install the crank gear last night. Today i should have here all patched up and hopefully i'll be bolting back down the road.
