351C Timing Cover

[67bluestang]

Anyone know where to find a timing cover for a cleveland? I've looked through all my catalogs and online and haven't found one yet. Mine has an area directly behind the water pump thats almost rusted through. I really don't want to put it back on.
Thanks

One from a 351M/400 will also work. Check ebaymotors.

Thanks D, but no luck there. There's plenty of 302-351w covers, but not the others.

Know someone that can weld? If I remember correctly, that is a flat piece of sheetmetal with a place to hold the crankshaft seal at the bottom. (with some water passages, of course) Fabricate.

I'll look again in my shop, but I think I got rid of the one or two extra's I had. Let you know tomorrow.
