Christian D says:

what do you do if the timing cover wont fit now? i added a double roller timing set to a 1987 block (has a plate) and now the timing cover doesn't fit, what should I do?

Eduardo Corrochio says:

Did you have to put a different balancer on? I replaced the stock chain with a double roller chain and now the balancer sticks out too far.

Arlen Bidwell says:

Looking at the harmonic balancer your putting Molly on at 11:00 it looks like the balancer is separating from the vulcanized rubber might want to change the balancer too they will slip

John Michaud says:

Self changing oil lol

Unable to understand what the master mechanic was saying because of the poor audio and low tone , sounded like maybe to close to the mic (who knows)? It would have been very helpful to hear the expert's comments clearly. Otherwise execlent video and information. Thank you.

the small 283 engines are the best engines chevrolet ever made. Do anything you want with it and it keeps on spinning..

limbslapper one says:

when putting on the timing cover I usually snug the bolts lightly and slide the damper onto the drive shaft. Then i tighten two of the bolts enough to keep the cover from moving .i remove the damper and torque the bolts. this procedure centers the oil seal with the crank. the seal won't wear on one side or the other.
