The bad news is I can't locate my crank oil slinger. I've heard that some use it and some don't. Looking for some 'expert' opinions. BTW this is a street motor (440) if that matters. Thanks.

MOPARTS ALERT!: Chris Pugh aka gabodyman of Dalton, Georgia, cashed my $140 money order on 4-16-02 never sent parts. On 3-19-07 he agreed to return my money; "april 9, it will be in the mail by that date""will do as promised. chris" Still no parts and no money!

I have been around a very long time and have pulled plenty of originals apart at the yard. I don`t spend my time second guessing the engineers who designed these things so I always reinstall it. `02 RAM2500 SPORT V10 4x4 `06 GMC sierra NO cars

Ok, However roller timing chain clearance is my concern. Those engineers were only concerned with the OEM stuff of the time.

All of my original 340s had double roller chains and they all have oil slingers.
