Very random and probably far fetched but does anyone have access to 440 connecting rod and piston drawings with full dimensions? Original not aftermarket.

No I don't, actually not sure what it is. It's the same one since I got the car

I don't have a protector but I took some rough measurements and did some maths and it probably has around 3 degrees of play in the engine.

So I pulled the distributor today and I couldn't find anything wrong with the springs or weights. They have no slack, consistent tension between the two and they move smoothly. Just for the sake of it I lubricated them with some white lithium. Put it back together and started the car. After...

For anyone curious, the intake valve in cylinder 8 was stuck open. The pushrod jumped up on the edge of the lifter and was keeping it open. So it was stealing all the air and fuel from cylinder 1. I have reset the pushrod and lash on that side. Darn rockerarm adjuster came loose. It's good and...

Ok sounds good! Thanks for the help.
