LQ9 timing chain issue Building a 408 & I bought a timing set from a local hot rod shop, single roller.
Put it on last night and I have at least 1/2" of slop in it.
Do I have the wrong set or am I missing something here????
Thanks

I thought he sold me a factory GM replacement but now I'm not sure??
Someone told me I needed a LS2 Timing Chain Tensioner but after looking at them on line and looking at my block........well there are no holes to attach the darn thing too

Looks like my choice's are:
A: Drill a fully assembled Short Block and buy a 15.00 part
B: Buy a Cloyts Hex Adjust for 175.00
Not thrilled about either!
Thanks for the reply's 88

Here is my other option:
Called Cloyes and this is what they said I needed and said I would have .062 slop
