Timing Chain
Getting a new H/C combo and my budget is going to be tight. Was curious if I could skimp out on not getting the ls2 timing chain for a bit.

To risk the whole engine to save $40 would be foolish.
Do it right and you won't have to worry about it.

Depends on mileage and how much wear is on the old chain.

Bad Idea, Maybe eat ramen noodles for a while if you have to.
