Big Block Gear Drive On A Slant?

What’s wrong with that???? That looks about as good as it gets right there.

As long as the bearing in the idler can get lubrication I’d send that so fast your head would fall off.

That turned out very well.

As for cam thrust I think you’ll need a cam button of sorts to control it.

I’m excited for this thing to run. It will hurt some feelings.

It doesn't have a bearing. It rides right on the pinion.......which was one HARD SOB. I had to take it a friend who works at an industrial machine shop to do it and he broke the first bit and then had to step up to some kind of special badass bit they use for industrial irrigation pumps and that did it.
