I recently viewed a post where a "SMART T'R" had re purposed his KRW piston aligner to check adjust mag. clearance?
Please refresh me on the forum date?

I have a Stevens rod alignment fixture that I had a flywheel attachment made to hold the flywheel to set the magnet height with my KRW gap gauge - is this it ?

I believe I saw the flywheel holding fixture in an old Ford Service Manual or Bulletin ?

Steve: How do you manage to keep your garage so neat? I'm unable to do that! Great looking shop.

I am too Steve. (see mine below)

I've always heard, however, that a clean desk or workbench is the sign of a sick mind. :shock:
