Restore proper timing chain protection on your 1979 Mustang with this direct-replacement timing chain cover from All Classic Parts. Designed for 289, 302, and 351W engines paired with a cast iron water pump, this cover fills the role of the original D3OZ-6019A when the factory piece is cracked, corroded, or simply missing from a restoration project.
Protects the timing chain at the front of the block. The cover seals the timing chain from contamination and oil loss, mounting directly to the front of the engine block in the factory location. A proper seal here keeps the timing chain lubricated and the engine bay tidy.
Replaces a damaged or missing original. Worn, cracked, or stripped timing chain covers allow oil leaks and leave the timing components exposed. Swapping in a fresh cover eliminates those issues and gets a restoration or repair back on track without hunting the salvage yards for a usable core.
Carries the necessary provisions for a complete assembly. The cover includes an oil dipstick hole along with mounting provisions for the fuel pump and water pump, so all factory accessories connect exactly as they did from the factory. No drilling, no fabrication, no adapters required.
