Default 3,300 miles New chain???

I have 3,300 miles on the motor, and I will be putting in another cam. My question to you guys is should I put a new timing set in or is the stocker good. I'll be spinning the motor to 6600rpm.

replace it. The stock timing chain is junk, even brand new.

This worked very well for my car:

There are also several other set ups, but the stock chain isn't what you want spinning to 6,600 rpm.
