1993 Volvo 5.0FLPMDA replacement parts

[hmramos]

I'm in the need of replacing the chain set #3856737 and the Oscillation damper #385390 of my 1993 Volvo 5.0FLPMDA, but it seems that is not longer available nowhere. Does somebody know what would be the right replacement part? or what other options do I have?

Thanks in advance!

welcome aboard

remember, volvo bought the entire ford motor from ford, then added their intake, exhaust manifolds and electrics. the damper and timing chain are pure ford parts

however if you really want to spend the money, ebay has a listing http://www.ebay.ca/itm/NEW-Volvo-Penta-3856737-Timing-Chain-W-Sprockets-Kit-/180632945323

I myself would be buying my timing chain from summit racing for $40 for the timing chain and gears and $70 for the damper

Thanks for the information. the only problem that I have is that I dont know if the damper have to be the same one that is already installed or it could be any that ifis made for 302.

match the OD of the damper. generally marine installations use the larger (heavier) dampers. auto racing uses the smallest ones avaialble.
