See my profile Some rigs say 60,000 miles Probably a little less expensive now, Than when you "SHELL OUT" your entire valve train, pistons hitting valves ETC. When Mr. Belt Flies Loose! Not to mention this will occurr when you are many miles from home, delivering Aunt Sadie's Triplets, on some dirt road---Just after the Cell Tower got hit by lightening! Sounds like BIG $$$ to me! WWTD? He would make that a Priority, if it was his rig! Fortunately Turddogs rigs are Timing Chain on the '77 and Gear on Gear on the '46 Respond Love, Turddog
