@lf-tp2511 posted:So your cam cracked at the exact location where other cams have the small tab??
as if the tab was snapped off and created the crack in the process??
And again, how would the stock splined steering wheel hub manage to cancel without an added rod as you have done??

It wouldn't but in reversing the cam to the "stock orientation", the directional switch release button does not line up (I just tried that) with the release tab on the directional switch.
To realign that switch (somewhere in the 3/4 to 1" range) to make that work with the reversed cam would mean that the ignition switch would also need to move the equal amount to align with the enclosure case openings.
That in essence would move the steering wheel out from the dash the same amount. For me that is undesirable.
The way I am aligned now, the "missing" cog would need to be located on the same end of the cam as the release tang is. That obviously doesn't exist.
It can stay with the drive pin for that reason.
As far as the crack location, there is more then one crack in the cam. Not just in the "intended" location to the missing cog.
What is the dimension of the original steering wheel depth, i.e., the corrugated steel tube? Is it the same length as the Momo adapter?
My car had a LeCarra wheel on when I bought it. That may explain the variation from the stock assembly? I don't remember how the LeCarra hub adapter mated up to the cam.
It could be that the LeCarra installer was looking to gain more arm space by moving the steering wheel about an inch closer to the dash? That would explain this situation.
