hello..i am looking for a timing chain cover and dist.. for a 401can anyone help me ..also looking for a 3 duces manifold for a 401 or 365..thanks ou: :3gears:
401 parts I am sure I have a timing cover and stock style distributer out in the garage. I can check this afternoon. I may have a dual point/Mallory that needs a cap also if interested. You can PM me if you are interested.
I think the intake is different for a 401 than a 362, the 401 is wider by a half inch if I remember right. Larry
maybe on ebay ebay might have what you need 3 deuce manifold of unknown nailhead application http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Offe...038606875QQcategoryZ36474QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem timing chain cover http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1955...ryZ34202QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
ebay parts The offy tri power intake listed p/n 3413 is for the 264-322 engines only. It won't fit your engine, either the 364 or 401-425. You could eggshape the holes and make it bolt to your heads but the ports will still be off. The front cover is for a 322" but should bolt up to your block. The good thing is that it is cast iron and probably is not porous or corroded through. You will need to use the correct waterpump for the cover though. The price seems very fair.
Dist I just ordered a new msd dist for my 425 from summit, thats your best bet. And check out classic buicks for other, ive also got a timing chain cover, but purdy sure classic buicks has it.
I have a timing cover and a distributor. new, used, rebuilt, msd. Whichever you need. The cover off a 322 will not work for your application. There are also two different water pump gasket surfaces on the 364-425 engines. Make sure you match it up to your water pump.
