I just bought my first Plymouth 1969 sport satellite factory a/c with a 318
I was trying to find the timing pointer but cant seem to find it ? some pages I look at seem to suggest its molded into the timing cover other pages seem to say it should be on the passenger side of the car and it bolts to the water pump bolts ? I certainly do not have the one that's molded into the cover and if it is supposed to be attached to the pump then mine is missing .
The question I have is how do I determine which one I'm supposed to have ? I don't know if someone changed the cover at some point ? Does the 318 timing cover interchange with some other size engine ? can I find a bolt on style , mark the balancer at tdc and just start over ? I just want to get some information so I don't screw it up , thanks in advance for any help
