It wouldn't be a bad idea, espeically if you have lots of miles on your stock one. You can pick a heat treated double roller chain from SDPC2000.com for $114, in my opinion you might as well do it when you swap cams and save yourself time and moeny later.

for a little more work and less money you can pick up a rollmaster double.
