Took it apart 2 years ago and just getting back to it so I can't remember the order.
I have a 1959 292 out of an Edsel. The car was in a barn for 45+ years and I believe it is all original. It did not include the counterweight used on the earlier Ys.
I have the thrust spacer and plate installed in the block already.
The following parts are left (bagged and labeled timing chain): Bolt with thick washer, flat washer with keyway, spacer (thicker than keyway washer), eccentric.
My 1959 Edsel factory service manual has a nice diagram but it only shows one washer/spacer between the eccentric and the bolt with thick washer and nothing between the eccentric and gear. I have one more washer than it shows!
I believe that the flat washer with the keyway goes between the gear and the eccentric (replacing the missing counterweight) and that the spacer goes between the eccentric and the bolt with thick washer. Can anyone verify that?
