pepboys wrong parts
pepboys gave you the timing kit for a 84 and older 22r the 1st time thats probably why it would not fit. the 85 and newer blocks are a 1/4 inch shorter than the 84 and older ones

I got my new Timing chain, sprockets, tensioner and steel-backed guides in this weekend.
Wasn't too bad at all but it did take a lot of hours.I started Friday afternoon and finished it this morning. Probably about 18 hrs total but I wasn't rushing.
Feels good to gain that knowledge about my motor though...
Regards,
Warren

I'm not sure. I took a look because it said that you had made a post dated yesterday April 11th. Sure enough there was nothing there.
Bizarre.
