Does anyone know what type of timing chain and gears would be on a 73 340. My car is an original survivor car with low miles the chain has less the 5 degrees of slack but does it have a nylon gear in there.
If it has the nylon coated gears, I would think that it is the old single row 318 type chain.
I like the Edelbrock true roller double roller chains. They are a step up from the stock 340 chain and are only $62 at Mancini Racing. I've run them over 250,000 miles. I once was rebuilding an engine with 130,000 on it and the chain was in good shape still, but replaced it anyway because I had already bought a new one...
