One thing, very important is the tappet plate. It must lay on a horizontal, neutrally flat plane across the gear, in a neutral fashion. If the gear is shimmed too high it will push the tappet against the opposite side of the shell and can bind. The tappet once the shell is together ( prior to full re-assembling) must be free to slide forward/aft as the piston does
