Default double timing chain. what's a good brand
Who has experiences on a double timing chain setup on an ls? I'm putting together an lq 408 and need to see what setup and brand to use. Thanks in advance

I've been running a Rollmaster double for the last 7 years with out any problems. The oil pump had to be shimmed off the block, and the timing cover fits with out any grinding or spacers.

Same. My Rollmaster fit with spacers and no grinding. It has a IWIS chain and hardened billet gears. Very nice for the money ~$139 or so.

Mine has been in since 2003. Everything seems to be fine.

Why do you think you need a double chain?

Chevy C5-r team uses a single that is available to use. If they don't need a double who does?
