There is now a LS2 double roller? Never heard of one until now.

I have the Katech C5R single chain with factory gears and am not worried about it one bit.
The chain has no idea what cylinder pressure or HP you are making, and since the C5R chain has been proven to withstand serious abuse from extended high rpm usage
it will be plenty good for me.
Katech has yet to have a failure with this setup, so it will likely last me forever.
A premium double roller will be fine too.
