Re: 1937 camshaft nut locking washer

there is no way that slot is fitting into any woodruff key. I sat there and studied it.

I went ahead and torqued that cam nut down really good and bent the tabs over on the lock washer.

I don't see how that lock washer works unless it is anchored, but I guess either Packard knows something I don't or I'm missing something.

timing cover hasn't been put on yet, just the backing plate, so if anyone knows...please do tell the secret of the mysterious woodruff key slot in the washer.
