Need Help Long Dowel Pin!

[WHSTLR]

Got a new MMR block and was trying to put on my timing chain guides when I noticed I needed dowel pins. Went to a Ford dealership and they stated that all dowel pins now had one part number. So I ordered them and they seem to be too short. The guides really look as if they will slide off at any second and I am not familiar with any of this. Plus now I am going to have to get that dowel pin out of the block if I have to get a longer one. Frustrated! Any one have a clue on this?

I know what your talking about. Ive seen this on my motor. But the only thing I can think of to do is to figure out a way to push that pin out just the little bit it needs.

Go to a different parts counter and ask for dowels from an 03 Cobra....or have mmr send you some.

Found out they are called "Tensioner Arm Pivots for CAST Iron blocks" from MMR. So now I have to get the smaller dowel pins out that I just hammered in...SMH! Learning experiences can be hard at times LOL!
