    Is it recommended to run a 300 Timing cover on a 340?
    Today I noticed that my cherry 340 timing cover is actually a 300.
    The 340 has 3 bolt holes around each water port and the 300 has 2. So I would assume that the 300s are prone to leak. Should I start looking for the proper 340 timing cover?
    Thanks,
