Description: THIS IS A BRAND NEW TIMING GEAR / CHAIN SET UP TO REBUILD YOUR TIMING GEARS AND CHAIN UNDER THE FRONT COVER OF YOUR MGA OR MGB.THIS WILL ALSO FIT ANY OF THE MG 1500 , 1600 , 1622 AND 1800 ENGINES USED IN MANY OTHER CARS AND VEHICLES THAT THE BRITISH USED THESE PARTS IN. 1956-1980 (NOT THE 1500 MIDGET / SPITFIRE ENGINE USED 1975-1980)YOU WILL RECEIVE ALL PARTS SHOWNTHESE ARE ALL THE PARTS NEEDED TO REFRESH YOUR TIMING GEAR SET UP ON THESE ENGINES. THIS DOUBLE ROW SET WAS USED 1956-1971 AND THEN BRITISH LEYLAND FIGURED THEY'D SAVE A FEW POUNDS AND GO CHEAP WITH A SINGLE ROW TIMING CHAIN SET UP. THOSE TENDED TO WEAR OUT (WITH AS LITTLE AS 35-40,000 MILES) AND GET STREACHED CAUSING YOUR ENGINE TO LOOSE POWER AND COMPRESSION AS THE VALVES WERE OPENING AT THE WRONG TIME WHEN THE CHAIN GOT STREACHED OUT. NOW THE ENGINE CAN'T GET ALL THE FUEL NEEDED TO MAKE THE PROPER POWERTHIS SET UP WILL BOLT DIRECTLY UNDER / ONTO THE 1972-80 ENGINES WITH NO MODIFICATION. I USED TO GET PEOPLE IN SAYING THEY NEEDED A TUNE UP BECAUSE THE CAR HAD NO PICK UP.DO A COMPRESSION TEST AND IFTHE ENGINE IS LESS THAN 125 PSI IN EACH CYLINDER AND EVEN , A STREACHED CHAIN IS THE PROBLEM. A GOOD ENGINE HOLDS150-165 PSI.BIG NOTE: MANY MGA ENGINES USED A FELT SEAL THAT WAS PACKED INTO THE TIMING COVER. THIS RUBBER SEAL WILL NOT FIT. IF YOU CAN , TRY AND FIND A TIMING COVER OFF A MGB ENGINE AND USE IT INSTEAD OF THE MGA COVER. IT WILL FIT BUT ONES AFTER 1972 , YOU'LL HAVE TO REMARK YOUR CRANK GEAR TIMING MARK AS THAT WAS MOVED UP ON THE COVER SO YOU NOW DON'T HAVE TO CRAWL UNDER THE CAR TO SET YOUR TIMING. THE 72-80 COVERS ARE THE BEST , I FEEL , TO MAKE IT EASIER TO TIME YOUR ENGINE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS , PLEASE ASK AND I WILL BE GLAD TO GIVE YOU AN ANSWER.REVIVE THAT TIRED ENGINE AND CHECK YOUR COMPRESSION. THIS MIGHT BE ALL YOU NEED AND NOT AN ENGINE REBUILD LIKE YOU MIGHT THINK. SHIPPING , HANDLING AND INSURANCE WILL BE $6.95 TO ANY ADDRESS IN THE UNITED STATES.
