hey guys  I do not understand where to place the feeler gauge for the camshaft end play
manual states between thrust plate and camshaft    there is no space what so ever
stock 1981 FLH  Andrews J grind cam
the old camshaft was an Andrews A grind  with .50 spacer
I just do not see it
thanks

Easiest for me with the rear lifter stool removed.. yes between cam and Plate..
A screw into the end of the camshaft will help considerably!! Push, Pull.....
