Actually I pointed that out a number of years ago when rebuilding a 1275 I
installed in my Bugeye. Couldn=E2=80=99t believe it could be installed wro=
ng.
There was a connection with Frank, however. I purchased the 1275 from him.

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>As our friend Frank once pointed out, one of the manuals is wrong
on how to install the distributor drive in the block by 180
degrees and the other thing is the dog on the dizzy is held on by
a roll pin so if it's rebuilt the dog gear could be 180 off also.
Just move the plug wires 180 if you don't want to pull the drive
gear out. It is easy to pull it and change it to the right
position if you want.</p>
