Very nice work. I can't wait to get my hands on these parts.

Nice! One thing about the cam key though. It would probably be a good idea to get a smooth finish on the areas that mate with the cam. You don't want the key and the cam wearing against each other. No burrs or sharp edges. Even just using a stone or fine sand paper would probably be enough.

I've been wondering if it should be heat treated too. The pics of the old part look like it was.
Oh yeah was the original hole (.159) 90 degrees from the teeth? If the teeth were 0 and the old hole was 90 then the new hole would be 63 from the 90 right?
Almost forgot, what is the diameter of the grove? .902?

Damn bro, looking good!
That one in the picture came of a toasted F22, I mean that thing was all kinds of dark inside. The other distributor keys I have don't look anywhere near as bad. I'm going to say no, unless there is anyone thinking otherwise...
Correct, going CCW from the 90º, teeth facing up like in the picture. Clockwise would be 117º from 90º. Looks like you got it.
Yes, .902"
I missed this... 0.007" short? It shouldn't be much of a problem for the testing. If everything else is good it might be best to to make a revised plate first so we can be sure that the angle of the pin hole is dead-on.
Let me know if you need something for the material. Thanks man.
Waiting for a mill to open up to do the plate. Just wanted to give an update on it.
Didn't know where to post this but my car just took a dump. Was driving home from work today and blew the motor. The motor has 260000+ miles on it and the head gasket has leaked oil since around 210000 miles. The good news is that ill finely be able to fix the leaky gasket. But will be car less for about a week.
ouch, that sux man, mine is at 265k. Fingers crossed,lol. no leaks im aware of for now. Get'er fixed. good luck!
Sorry to say but im still waiting for a machine to open up. We have been slammed with work lately.
whats all left to go into this project?? just get a revised plate made and tested?? then it goes into production (so to speak)??
That pretty much sums it up lol.Once its tested and proven ill be able to run all the parts in one day.
I'm assuming that carbed guys don't get the option of using the 4g distributors correct?
Lostforawhile:we have to pick on him he's CAH he spray painted himself into this corner with the accord.
Tomorrow might be the day I'll be finishing a job tomorrow and will probably be setting up the next, if i do, ill leave room on the table for the part.
Wasn't able to run it, but made room for it, so sometime next week ill run it.
Does anyone have an idea when these will be done?
I'm really excited to see the progress
maybe 2-3 months, tops? they still have to get the keys made, and then put together the finished product, and then test it. It all really depends on the machine work.
I don't work at my other job this weekend, so I'm gonna try and do the revised plate tomorrow!
Will let u know how it goes.
