I've never done this before but inexperience has never stopped me before.

I found the Chevy distributor shaft and it is long enough to use without having to have to cut and weld it in the middle. Only problem is, the centrifical advance will retard the timing as the engine is reved, not advance it as you would want.

With .0005 slip fit and red locktite I don't think I have anything to worry about. Have you ever used red locktite? It's wonderful stuff.
