53buickconvert Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Does any one have the parts manual diagram for the front of the engine. I am wondering if the felt gasket that I have in the rebuild kit goes on the crank between the timing chain and harmonic balancer:confused:Thanks,Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

53buickconvert Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 Thanks MrEarl for the manual diagram. It dosen't quite show exactly what I am looking for but it is very helpful. Would you have the page with the timing chain and if it shows the felt gasket?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick5563 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Tim,I don't have a picture to help you, but on later nailheads there isn't a felt gasket anywhere near there. I believe the area you are talking about is just metal to metal contact. I can't think of where a gasket of that size would go (elsewhere on the engine).
