Agree, there is slop, I have never pulled a trimming chain on a slant six or checked slop in one, looking forward to seeing a new chain and gear set in that to see the drag slop a chain has, I am sure you have My friend. memike.
IDK if that’s a lot or not. If it were I, a degree wheel would help decipher how much is actually there. Considering it is spinning only one way ….. I do see how the minor amount can be irritating, which is probably more mental than anything. Whose gear drive? Milodon, IIRC, said a newspaper page clearance was needed.
Look at the latest video on it. I got it where I want it now. I agree, it has to have SOME clearance. I haven't put the degree wheel on it YET, because I don't have the final camshaft I plan to run. That's a few dead presidents down the road. lol

Oh and it's a modified CAT gear drive for a 440. I changed it to a single fixed idler.
