Only a 302 in the MK VI (minor changes from the next generation Town Car). 
But point taken for the timing gear. Thinking of going through the engine of 
the 230K one myself, now that we have enough extra cars around (have 6 
running good now, including the old engine Mk). I also have an engine out of 
a '82 Mk VI that got T-Boned (hired help was driving). Paid off the insurance 
company for it for parts for the other ones.
