[Healeys] Vernier timing gears

I would use thin AN washers under the head of the AN bolt.

Hello,

           I am getting back to my Healey 3000 engine rebuild after two 
years.  I bought the Roller master vernier timing gear set from Moss at 
that time.  I have previously used the Roller Master gear set with 
multiple key ways to adjust the cam timing with no problems on other 
rebuilds. What I don't like about this set is that the cap screws used 
to clamp the vernier gear to the hub are not very robust. Working in 
aviation I have AN-4 bolts that I can replace the cap screws with and 
safety wire them to prevent slippage.  Has anyone using this kit had 
problems?  I could keep the cap screws and Loctite them. This is a 
street car, not a race car. Pictures are one bolt installed and the 
hardware side by side.

Wayne
