4.3 swap....timing cover
I am putting a 96 4.3 in my 87 4runner. I am going with a carb'd setup. So my question is which timing cover can I use? I will have to use an HEI dizzy setup and adjust timing to 10 deg BTDC. The stock timing cover only shows TDC. I noticed a timing cover from a 85 astro van has the timing marks on it. Will it bolt up to my 96 4.3?
Any advise would be great!

Not sure but i think the 85 cover should work , Make sure its the same shape and number of bolts. Put your motor at 0 degree put 85 cover on and see if it lines up with harmonic balancer line . Post this in engine swap. Another guy just put a 4.3 to a toyota 5sp maybe he will tell you what flywheel to use or call advanced adaptors.
