Bruce.  The 77 FSM has little to say about it but here it is...

Subject: IML: 78 NYB TIMING CHAIN


Hello all,
   Many thanks again for the tips on my rough-running
78 NYB.  As predicted by several of you geniuses,
there's 30 degrees of lash in the timing
chain/gear(!).  The shop wants to replace all the
belts and water pump in the process of replacing the
chain, which I can understand, but don't want to pay
for ($600 for the whole job).  I'd like to replace the
gear & chain myself, but have no instructions (400 ci
lean burn engine).  Does anyone have this part of the
FSM scanned?
   BTW  I am almost 3/4 of the way through scanning
the 1969 manual, if anyone needs something from it.

Thanks
Bruce S
