Timing indicator

[redrr]

Hello, I have a 73 roadrunner that I am putting a 440 engine in. When I received it from my machine shop the billet timing indicator was on the passenger side. This hits the water pump housing which has a passenger side outlet (1973). TDC was set by shop (on passenger side) . Driver side indicator is needed but the balancer is set up on the passenger side.

Are you sure it hits it? Post some pics of what you have.

Yes 100% even if it clears you would not be able to see it??, apparently , and I may be wrong but in 1973 the waterpump housing lower hose was moved to passenger side. I guess I could get a tape and driver's side indicator. I'll get a photo

Far as I know you should still be able to see the marks. Cant say I have seen a timing cover with the tab on the left side. What timing cover and indicator are you using? What balancer?
