I was changing 1972 Pontiac Engines Nylon Timing Gears for anyone who wanted the update to steel in 1972 at my Uncle's dealership.
On my Uncle's dime.

I probably changed no more than 10 of the Nylon timing gears during 1972, but my Uncle said it was "Good Will" and his nephew worked cheap, lol. In some cases I had to use the special GM tool to raise the front of the engine high enough to get the oil pan off the engine with the engine still in the car.

No love for the Nylon Gear Engineer.
