    Has anybody tried the timing cover for the 350 from JC Whitney?
    It looks like from their pics that the seal installs from the front of the cover, plus it looks like its drilled for the 14 and 20 bolt oil pans. Those 2 features are great, but was wondering about the quality and accuracy of the oil and water pump machining. Anybody know:Do No: Mark

    It is actually a V6 piece....... but works perfectly on the 350! I ordered mine from them and it's been on for 2+ years and absolutely no problems. You will need to use a V6 distributor hold down, or fabricate one (Large washer).
    It does not come with a seal, but you can pick one up at any auto parts store. :TU:

    Thanks Mike, I know TA sells the cover for the 455 with the cover modified for the seal to be installed from the outside, but I stumbled across the one in JC Whitney and thought hmmmmmmmm, I like that:grin: Thanks again, Mark
