DiscoStudd Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 That's mainly because these things are only supposed to get about 170k ou of the timing gears.. The timing gear on the cam is made of a silly ass fiber.. They snap after several thousand, and the engine is lobotomized. FYI, only the older (82-88 for sure, not sure about 80-81) Dukes had the nylon timing gears. They switched over to an actual honest-to-goodness timing chain set on the Dukes in 89.
