Miles? Why'd you pick them up?
Ya, ok dude
That's exactly what had typed out to say but just let it go. No need to discourage an idiot. Lets just see him fail.

Don't you love it when you get a package and have no earthly idea what it is that you ordered? Um, yeah, sucks getting old. LOL.
Turned out to be the timing chains I picked up off ebay for $23. I replaced all the guides during the rebuild & soaked the tensioners in diesel for a few weeks during the rebuild, so they're fine. The only things questionable are the chains. Thanks [MENTION=92839]MyFX4Project[/MENTION] for the sweet deal on the cover gaskets & front seal. Will have $40 in a timing set [MENTION=64669]jferg92[/MENTION].
