Hey Y'all, (duplicate post t on Facebook)

I could use some direction on my '77 403 engine project. Now that I made it home with a slipped timing chain, I need to replace it and I want to do it right (but i never did this type of engine work before. I'm brave, have normal tools, the power of google/youtube and willing to offer some knuckle abrasion to the engine spirits ;-)

I see from comments that the way to go is a Cloyes 9-3113 double roller, true roller chain/ gear set....leave in the eccentric.

I need a few gasket but not sure what procedure to follow or what else I have to order or inspect to ensure nothing else got damaged by running it with a tooth slipped.

Anyone have a good reference on parts/tools needed and which method is best without removing the entire engine?

Is there anything else i should be doing while i have this amount of maintenance underway (I already have a new water pump for example).

Thanks for your help :-)
