Front Engine Plate Gasket Timing Chain
For L-134 engine with chain drive
High-quality gasket between front engine plate (timing chain cover) and engine block for the 4-cylinder L-134 "Go Devil" engine. This gasket is essential for an oil-tight seal of the timing chain compartment and protects the chain drive against leakage and contamination.

Features
- Gasket between timing chain cover and engine block
- For L-134 engines with chain driven camshaft
- Prevents oil leakage around chain drive
- Original OEM specification
- Essential during engine overhaul or timing cover repair
★ High-quality replacement for the original gasket, manufactured to OEM specifications for a perfect fit and reliable seal.
Application
This gasket is exclusively suitable for L-134 "Go Devil" engines with chain driven camshaft. NOT compatible with later L-134 engines using gear driven camshaft. The transition from chain to gear drive occurred around mid-1946 in civilian production.
Installation notes
When replacing this gasket, the timing chain cover must be removed. Note: the timing chain cover also has a crankshaft oil seal which is often replaced at the same time. Ensure that the gasket surface on both cover and engine block is completely clean and flat. Do not use additional sealer unless specified by the manufacturer.
Compatibility
ONLY for engines with chain driven camshaft. NOT for gear driven engines (from approx. engine nr. 44418 in 1946). Always check whether your engine has a chain or gears before ordering — this is not an interchangeable part between both systems.
Historical context
The L-134 "Go Devil" engine in the Willys MB and Ford GPW used a timing chain which was sealed by this front plate. This chain drive was robust and reliable under severe military conditions.
