Re: 2-piece Timing cover

I have a edlebrock timing cover on my Camaro with a sbc. I works well. I do not know much about the 4.3 But a little about the sbc. On the sbc over the years there have been about 3 sizes of seals were the timing cover sits on the lip of the oil pan. I believe one of the changes was in 1987 to a thicker seal. Now is this why they say it wont fix on your 4.3 I have no idea. But I do know on my 350 I just put the thick seal on it and it worked fine.

I thnik on my edlebrock I just did not get the bolts tiet enough, but I haven had the change to check it out. So it just leaves i little puddle everywhere I go and check the oil daily.
