Engine parts

[John Trindle <jtrindle@ftf03.larc.nasa.gov>]

Thanks so much for the reply.  The car is a 69, Mark III, and the 
serial number on the spare engine starts with FE.  I'll check the one in
the car when I get over to the mechanics' shop this morning.
 
It sounds like the parts we got are for a Mark IV 1296.
 
Thanks again to Mike, Marcus, and mjb.
 
Is it fairly normal for a timing chain to be worn at 82K miles?  I know
some cars with belts have a 60K replacement cycle.
