351C, Timing Cover, Damper, Chain

I have an extra cleveland cover if you need. Use a good quality double row, roller chain set. Inspect the rubber separating the inner from the outer ring of the damper. They last a long time, very few don't. If you've got a milkshake in the oilpan, it's a good bet it's a water or coolant leak. Pull the valve covers, flush the stuff down into the pan with diesel or gasoline (don't smoke) and change the oil and filter, use the cheapest oil you can find to replace it with. Run it again ant see if it has the same results. If it comes out clean, run it awhile with the cheap oil then do another change with the good stuff.

351C Timing Cover

D.Hearne,

Cupid has first dibs on the 351C Timing Cover, but if he doesn't need it, I may want it. The T-cover on my 351c is seriously pitted from the years, and I can't find one anywhere! I'm building a 408 stroker for my 72 convertible and want to replace my cover plate with a more suitable part.

Let me know.

Thanks

Maybe y'all are looking for the cover in the wrong places. Lots of 351M/400's still around, same cover. I've got two covers I can recall now, one off a 400 the other on a 351C shortblock

I have seen several timng covers on eBay as well.
