damo9999 11 Posted September 2, 2022 i have a bbm on my sohc 4 litre , but have no clearance between manifold and dissy,, its so close i can't get leads on and its out of the car .... is there different height dissy caps ,, because the ones I have seen at the wreckers all have a little bit of room .even enough to get the cap off if need be ... i have triple checked to see if my dissy was in properly as well ..motor is ef and used to have coil packs , but have changed to dissy..... it's so anoying i am thinking of going back to a log manifold , but then I will have to make up cruise control cable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deankxf 20,316 Posted September 2, 2022 mate of mine when i asked him replied with this.. I have put 10+ EF motors with EF BBM and dissys It can work for sure asked what dissy cap and dissy you have? and if the oil pump drive is slotted into the dissy drive (dissy wouldn't be seated to the block if so) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
damo9999 11 Posted September 3, 2022 i worked out my problem with the dissy..... i have 5 sohc 4 litre dissys and 1 250 crossflow dissy... i managed to put the crossflow dissy in,, which even though it sits on the block and even meshes with the gears just , it sits higher 1 deankxf reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
