i have a 79 f-250 with a 460 engine. the timing chain over is damaged badly, with a hole eaten through it. i was wondering is this part still being made? thank you for your time

3 seconds of using this fancy website..."Google."

I got on though Summit Racing and a rear sump pan for my 4x4.

I got mine from RockAuto Parts Catalog

Yes there are cheaper ones that what I posted, just do a search on your own before posting.

thank you for letting me know. i do wanna fix this truck, simply because it belonged to a friend of mine that passed away about 2 years ago. but at the moment, it seems like i'm finding more and more things wrong with it. this break down started with just wanting to replace the small by pass hose. kind of now makes me wish i never gotten started.

I think we all get to a point in our build where we think/thought we were stuck or doing something we shouldn't have. Keep wrenching and I truly believe it's worth it in the end.

i'm gonna try.. it was a very stock truck when i bought it.. that's how i'm trying to keep it.

"I think we all get to a point in our build where we think/thought we were stuck or doing something we shouldn't have. Keep wrenching and I truly believe it's worth it in the end." That is really good advice Keith alittle here and a little there.....my truck has been like therapy, sometimes I dont want it to end, and other times

It all depends on how big a smile you want to have when you walk out of a store and are standing in the parking lot and look over and say "Damn look at that sharp old truck", oh yea it mine (big smile).

Hang in there, we are all there now or have been there or are going to be there sooner or later again and again.

lol by the way, I have the timing chain cover from the 460 i rebuilt. It is dirty, but it is solid. Ill PM you.

Woops I mis-read your original post, and see that you need one for a 460, that I DO NOT have laying around.

Get a hold of keiths78f150 he will hook you up with one.

Great guy, brought me a crave case of White Castle's.....thanks again.

Haha It was no trouble Rich.
