    • For use on 1949-1953 flathead Fords that retain the original front drive distributor 
    • New Isky cams come with this gear
    • Can be used on 1948 and earlier engines that use a 1949 and newer cam, front cover and distributor

    Replace your flathead Ford V8's weak original "fiber" timing chain gear with this superior, aluminum cam gear. It lasts longer and withstands high performance cam/valve spring loads with ease.  
    NOTE: # 560-56320 is an exact replacement for 1935-1948 Fords & Mercs using a "bolt-on" gear. Some 1935-1941 Fords/Mercurys used a press-on gear, this replacement timing chain gear will not work for this type of application. All our Isky cams for this engine use the bolt-on gear.
