Opinions on Cloyes dual roller hex adjust timing set?
 

I am thinking of running a Cloyes dual roller hex adjust timing set p/n 9-3159A on my 383 build along with a Melling hv/hp pump

Anyone run this Cloyes? and along with the Melling pump?

Anything good or bad to say...other than probably some machining to do to get things to fit

thx

I have a hex a just and like it. It makes life a lot simpler if you're wanting to play around with your timing a bit. Of course, if you perfectly spec out a cam, it doesn't help much because you won't need to adjust it. So, it's a toss up. It helped me b/c the cam wasn't meant for my setup, so the hex a just helped us dial it in a bit.

I've got one and have no complaints, good product IMO.

How are you supposed to adjust timing with it?

It has an eccentrc bushing that goes onto the locating pin on the end of the camshaft. By loosening the 3 cam bolts a tad and rotating the bushing with a hex key, cam timing can be changed +/- 6 degrees

I have the comp cams hex adj single roller, I havent used it yet.. Ill know within 2 weeks. ill let u know rjw...

I still have my double roller chain (roll master), not too sure if im gonna use it, it all depends on what the engine builder wants to use.. I also have the melling 10-296 pump w/ qtp 2pc cover..

I might have to clearance the 2pc cover as well, I dont know yet tho... Illlet the builder do that...
A single chain should be more than enough, but who knows...

I hope to have mine up and running by then as well


:D
