Timing chain cover.

Hello all,
I'm looking for a reverse rotation timing chain cover with a boss for a mechanical fuel pump. Does anyone have any part numbers or ideas?

Thanks

Assuming 5.0/302 ?

You can order them from various suppliers or find a used one. I bought a brand new aluminum one one a couple years back. They are not that much money relatively. I think 85 was the last year for the cover with a mechanical fuel pump mount.

Also I think the consensus was any timing cover from 79-85 would work whether it was setup with reverse pump or not. Based on my experiences there are certainly differences in the the impellers of the various water pumps (and belt drive setups) that matter for correct rotation and not the cover itself. Perhaps others can confirm.

Thanks, I'll look into them.

Here's one that's just the cover and no gaskets/seal.
