I have an 89 Supra with a 454 crate engine in it. Engine came flooded with water, no extra charge. Anyway, have torn the motor down and am ordering some parts. Is it essential to use marine head gaskets if only running the boat in fresh water? |

No, but I wouldn't. |

Does anyone know what the acceptable range for play is for the timing chain? Or where I might be able to find the specs for this? I have 1/2" of play on one side with the other side taught. Thanks. |

You're fine. Just be sure the water did not allow any rust to form on the chain or gears. |
