AS long as the tab is still attached it is fine then.

Couldn't you just bolt on another timing tab..the aftermarket type? You wouldn't need to mess with the R&R of a timing cover. The tabs are $2.99 from Speedway 7" or 8"..FYI only: a new chrome cover and tab set is only $10 from them.

Those are never accurate, unless you go and degree the cam and all that shiz. The factory tab and cover will be very accurate. I find it easier to put a new cover on, thats just me. Also degree wheels are expensive.I also want to put new gaskets on stuf, and I need a water pump etc.
