I have a 351W distributor but need to swap out the steel gear on it for a cast gear due to my 94 351W having a flat tappet cam and requiring a cast gear.
I bought a MSD gear from Summit, but the msd gear has a very short "shoulder" about a 1/4 inch and the gear on the distributor has a tall "shoulder" (about an inch)
Similar "tall shouldered gear" ebaymotors.com item 170268633883
here is the msd gear from summit

So if I put on the msd gear there will be a gap between the top of the gear tube (shoulder) to the Thrust collar(?).
Is this gap ok??
Can I reused the old roll pin hole??
Thanks, P.J.
