Ok not having any luck finding a 96-97 timing cover, hub, or knock sensor used. I thought i had them in a deal but the deal fell through. Where can i get these?

 

If you're looking for used then the forums and craigslist are your best bet.

 

The timing cover is discontinued, but the other two parts are still available from GM if you want to go that route.

 

Jegs sells a hub. I have no Idea if it's cheaper then what you can get a stock hub for but I use the jegs hub because of the keyway. Just a thought.

 

Yes im looking for them used but im not having any luck.

 

Just realized now myself that this 24x is going to cost me alot more then originally thought. My ati dampner is now useless as hubs are different lengths and this one size fit for an pre 96-97 cover. My double row timing chain has to go unless i want to fork out 550 for the efi double row cover and reluctor.

 

lol Now go out and tell your car you love it. You have got to love the little details that changed in the whole 5 or 6 years they made this engine. It's like all of the third gens engine options through it's life span rolled up into an engine.

 

That damper should work...I can't remember if yours is too long or too short, but it's fixable either way. Use a spacer/washer if it's too short, or take it to a machine shop if it's too long.

Double row timing chain will fit under a stock cover, but you'll have to machine the clearance into it. What do you want a double for anyway? Not necessary IMO.

 

I have a stock 1996 hub; I just replaced it with a keyed hub for some extra insurance. Let me know if you want it.

 

Ill have to do a little digging but i think i have a timing cover laying around somewhere and for a hub i just bought one from thunder racing.

Well i know most ati dampers come with a spacer for pre 96-97s for the reluctor difference but the current ati damper i have was a direct fit without a one so i guess different dampner? So that being say my ati damper will be for sale next year which is gay i just bought the ****** thing. The double row came with my engine so thats why ive kept it but now im going to have to resort back to a single row to fit a stock cover. I asked EFI Connections if i had a stock cover modded or there double row timing cover i had to upgrade to there double row crank reluctor to keep everything in sync?

 

Huge thanks to 97camaro383 and henry172. I GREATLY appreciate the help guys.

 

If deal fall through again PM me i have both
