Hi,
I am confused as to the orientation of myself to the engine when refering to left and right handed rotation. Is it from the belts to the distributor(front to rear), or is it from the distributor to the belts (rear to front)? I know left hand rotation is CCW and right hand rotation is CW. Also, in these Mark IV BBC's, what is the rotation of the rotor button in these engines? Is it the same or different? From what I have surmised, the Gen V and VI's have a different distributor setup for reverse rotation engines, but in the Mark IV, the distributors are the same regardless of the rotation of the engine.
Finally, these Velvet drive trannies in forward turn opposite of the engine rotation, right?
Sometimes, I think I had rather pull teeth than deal with some of the nuances of engines, but mostly, I have had fun.
