Well, in the brighter light of day...it still looks bad! Actually, all it needs is to be ground out and I'll get by buddy to heliarc it next week. Then, I will dry fit the housing to make sure the dowels fit into the plate like they should. I made the mistake of trying to pull it together with the bolts installed in all the holes. I am going to pull the engine and do this the right way. Should have done it this way in the first place. Lesson learned !
