Default Gen 6 timing pointer?

Does anyone know if there is a company that makes a billet timing pointer for a bbc gen6? I have found quite a few for gen4 but absolutely nothing for gen6. Thanks, Mark

you will need a adjustable one,you will need to set it up @ tdc,i will do this when degreeing in the canshaft..its the only way to get it dead nuts on or if you have the comp cam piston stop that screws in the sparkplug hole will work also with a degree wheel..make sure the batterys are disconnected first just incase you forget about the piston stop being in the hole..

Mr. Fixxall,
I'm sorry, I should have been more specific. I need a pointer that fits a 7" balancer. I switched from a stock 8" balancer to a 7" ati balancer during this build. I apologize. Thank you for the part # on the pointer. At the very worst if I can't find one for a 7" balancer I'll buy this one and adapt it to my app (cut & tig time). Thanks for taking the time for the reply. I really appreciate it! Mark
