which of these two is the better timing Kit... the CompCams 7153 or the Rollmaster CS1140
both Companies claim that their Kit is the most reliable and has no clearance issues with timing cover and installation is a snap, is that true? read so much about double roller chains having problems with the timing cover....

I put a rollmaster in my previous car and had no issues, it did not have the torrington bearing.
this time i used the LS2 chain ($30 from sdpc2000.com-->) and the stock sprockets. it is a more heavy duty chain and requires no modifications at all...plus it's inexpensive.

I put a double roller rollmaster with torington bearing in my car. I spent time making sure I could slide a .002 feeler guage in around the oil pump and I really did not like how the oil pick up tube sat in the oil pump. I pulled it back out and went with the LS2. The LS2 has more play in it but with out removing the oil pan and readjusting the pick up it fits much better. I may have missed some tricks to getting the duble in there but there are alot of people running the LS2.
