Default Re: BBC Timing Cover 65-68

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: markjohnson</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Little FYI for whoever buys this so they they don't have to learn the hard way like I did many years ago! These early non-dowel timing covers love to leak around the front seal and the correct procedure is to loosely install the timing cover, fully press on &amp; install the harmonic balancer to center the seal, then final tighten the front cover down. </div></div>

Mark, I can remember someone telling me that a long time ago.....otherwise they can leak real bad.

BTW........OR BEST OFFER ON THE TIMING COVER!!!!!!!!!
