What do you guys think?

 

I dont get your question at all. What are you trying to do???

 

If you are replacing your Timing chain, should you just upgrade to the LS2 Chain or go with the Double-Timing Chain?

 

I just went with the ls2 chain,i think it was like 30 bucks!

 

I would go with a Ls2 chain ,they are not that expensive & U have no worrys about the chain hitting or rubbing a hole in the front cover ,i have heard of night mare storys about the double roller hitting & people having holes in there cover,someone on this board had a double roller ,they had to griind on the cover to clear it , no thanks .i like stuff that goes on easy that u dont have to modify crap to make it work .jmo

 

Unless you are going with a monster cam and monster springs the LS2 chain is the way to go. Double roller is way overkill and comes with a variety of issues as stated above.

 

ls2 chain here.there are benefits with a double roller but the ls2 chain is plenty strong and reliable with no issues as mentioned with a double roller.

 

With the ls2 chain, can you advance/retard a cam or do you have to buy an adjustable chain, if so whats a good bang for the buck adjustable chain. Also on TSP whats the difference between the ls2timingset and ls2 chain.

 

It's the sprocket that is adjustable. Comp sells an infinitely adjustable sprocket ,not too expensive. I've been runnig one for ~60m miles.

 

LS2 here....

 

I'd say you go with the LS2, I am running the double roller and I'm having problem with my UD Pulley....

 

the ls2 timing set comes with the chain and geears.
the ls2 chain is just the chain.

you cant advance the cam or retard the cam unless you have an adjustable timing set. the chain is not adjustable, but the gears are.

an ls2 chain will be fine unless when you have t he cover off the gears look messed up some how, then get the new gears

 

So if you want a cam to be advanced 4 degrees, you would need the cam with 4 degrees advanced grounded in?

I also have an ASP Pulley that will be going in. It just sounds like a double-roller is safer. I think I may go with the LS2 chain. Anyone ever break one? Or damage their valves?

 

I ran an LS2 chain in my car. Aggressive LSK lobes with .641" and .646" (as measured on cam doctor) with stiff Patriot Gold double springs. Spun the motor up to 6600-6800 over and over and haven't had any issues. I'll be pulling this motor apart in the next few weeks to swap to a less aggressive cam and put it in my buddy's car.

Using an LS2 chain in my new motor as well, but the lift on the new cam is only .580ish, and revs will be about the same probably.
