Two things come to mind . First , if you tack weld the plates ,t will be very hard to index the distributor cap . It would be better to drill a hole through both plates then file a slot in one , so you can move the reluctor around to get the timing and the cap index correct . Second is to shim the shaft to get minimum endplay on the gear .
