Re: Best timing chain? yep.....the rollermaster that sdpc sells. I just installed it at Christmas when I did the head/cam swap. Its a double roller chain and their price is really good (almost as cheap as working on old school SBCs <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> ). Get the one with the Torrington Bearing to cut down on vibration, noise, and hp loss.

You can advance or retard the cam with the timing set. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I just installed one and advanced my cam 6 degrees.
