Are you saying Cloyes or Comp has s single roller Hex Adjust? I already have a JWIS chain and may replace it with a Rollmaster, but if I could do it without going to a double roller that would be great.

Yes, my understanding is the Cloyes Hex-Adjust and Jwiss set-up is a single roller design. Pricey though ~ $300.

Yah, it was a bit pricey, but I love it. I think I got mine from Comp but it is a Cloyes.

That's what mine is, a Cloyes Hex-Adjust with the JWIS chain. It is quite pricey, but IMHO, you get what you pay for.

I've been looking around and can't seem to find any vendors here that have them posted on their websites. Thunder Racing has the Comp, but who has the Cloyes? Also, can they be purchased without the chain since I already have one? And I hope I'm not hijacking this thread.

http://www.sdpc2000.com/catalog/1840...Timing-Set.htm

SDPC-LS1/6
then engine components
then timing chains
then cloyes
then click on it
and description is for the Hex-Adjust

Yes, it was a PITA to find. I hear the Comp is about $100 cheaper using one of the major racing parts suppliers.

CAT3, I just looked in my Summit catalog with the part number you gave and they have the set without the chain. Part# CLO-3153-A. Since we are not supposed to give prices let me say that it is more than $200 less without the chain. I'm sure my JWIS chain will work fine with it. Thanks.

Yep. And I am sure the stock chain will work also, or new LS1/2 chain.

Ok, Cloyes is a DBL Roller. Anyone make a single? None I have found so far. Rollmasters DBL, SLP & Cloyes and Comp. Ugh.


FInal verdict using a rollmaster or similar, and APS SFI Apprvd pulley, machining required or no? Thought I seen where the SFI Version of ASP didnt need it.

My Cloyes IS NOT a double roller. It is a single with the JWIS chain. I also run the SFI approved ASP pulley.
