Maybe cam chain gear nylon teeth? Not sure how they might get up into the head though. Slipped timing gear might explain the popping.

Score on the late model chrome valve cover, truck pan/oil pickup, and truck motor mounts!

Hard plastic bits in the valve cover to me suggests PCV valve pieces and/or old hardened valve stem seal material. Not much else up there....

well. I bought a 1974 Plymouth scamp, and he threw the motor in for FREE.
Bill has a sweet lowrider ram pickup say 1987.He's putting the 360 race engine from the scamp into it.

I'm probably will sell as a package.

another motor/trans running in a 1970's dodge sport.year unknown on
