Technical Whatizit???

This Cragar thingy was posted on the AACA site. Anyone know what it is??

 

Angle finder.

 

Didn't know it was lost.

 

Wasn't your turn to watch it.

 

Cam timing wheel somewhat modified.

 

I don't think it's either an angle finder or a cam timing wheel. It seem to be one piece. How would one use it to determine angles? Also, how would it be used to set a cam. Engine builders use a regular degree wheel, a pointer and a dial indicator. This thing has no provision to be bolted to a crankshaft.It also has that odd looking rectangular thing on the face of it.

 

Got a bigger picture Carl?

 

Timing wheel. The rectangle is something added, standing out on bolts or studs of some sort over the center hole so it can still be bolted to a crank. Rectangle probably adapts it to a wrench fixture made for some other lash-up.

 

^^Maybe a permanent one that goes over the pulley?^^

 

No one asked what is written across the top, could be a big clue. I think it's machine shop related. A base of a grinding fixture?

 

Looks like a degree wheel from here. Pic is small on my computer though.

 

It says cragar

 

Its a timing wheel, there is one for sale on Ebay right now for $100. It does appear to be modified or perhaps a different application than the one on Ebay.
