Morning all, certified numb skull here!
Well this 302 build is the first one where I'm spending the time and $$$ to build it the way I always wanted and thought it should be. This includes decreeing the cam. Gotta find TDC first right? Well had the usual brain fart and already put the head on and torqued it down. Then I realize I can't find TDC the way I seen it done with a piece of flat bar bolted across the deck with a bolt and couple nut on it? Like always being thoughtless causes me to be thoughtful later on. I can use an old plug or a "anti fouler" with a nut welded on it? Screw it in no.1 plug hole, rotate crank til ball on flywheel line up with pointer in the bell housing? Screw piece of all thread into anti fouler til it touches piston, then rotate opposite direction and adjust according to what the pointer on degree wheel says? Iirc you can buy a piston stop tool like this? Of course being cheap hard headed and insisting everything take forever I'll make mine. How bout it guys will this work?
