Got the timing cover off and the cam gear is stripped. I already have new matched set.
Where did all the metal shavings go? There are some in the timing cover but not enough to look like it is all of them.
This engine with the new HEI disti has only been ran about 30 minutes. I bought it from the guy that installed it. I cant see the cam gear getting that bad that fast. Is is possible that it was wearing out already and I just pushed it over the edge? Someone has been in before and changed the timing chain and gears.
Also I managed to distort the crank damper getting it off, Man was it tight on there.
I managed to find a new one from Jegs.
