We run a single chain on our 8 second camaro

LS2 single works great but the Katech JWIS chain is better. I ran both.

Single or double roller is just preference. In reality why do we need to hot rod our cars? We do it because we like to. And everyone has their own ideas.

I tried using the Edelbrock on a LS6 while doing a cam. It rubbed on the bottom of the oil pump and the cover. It ended up cracking when I torqued it down. Summit took it back and just re used the stock piece. I was not impressed with it but that's just my .02
