Abstract
A projection having contoured sides that is carried by a member drivably engaging an internal combustion engine ignition distributor shaft is forced, upon assembly of the distributor to the engine, into an accommodating notch on the end of the engine camshaft adjacent the distributor shaft. The notch in the camshaft has substantially plane sidewalls that taper substantially equally inwardly at such an angle that each may tangentially engage a respective contoured side of the projection.
