what timing set to get? best one? im getting my engine re done and getting a cam kit very soon and im trying to figure out all the parts i need.. i was told i should get a new timing set while im doing everything else. would this be a good choice?http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CLO-9-3151/ what else would i need with it?
If you want I have a like new timing chain kit that came off of a heads cam car. THe chain kit has very low miles. Pm me if you want it. I will sell it to you cheaper than you can get one for new. Its literally like new still
Hey:
It is probably cheaper to buy an CSR electric water pump, and a STD Cloyes chevy single/double roller timing chain set, and Plug/weld the WP hole up, than it is to buy that set.

You have a billion choices.
-Stock non-vented opti with stock timing set. This is the least expensive easiest option, not to mention your only option without converting to a vented optispark.
-Stock non-vented opti, stock timing set, electric water pump.
-Convert to a vented opti, run a Cloyes double roller, and an electric water pump. This requires the most work, but will provide the most substantial gains.
PS - none of your options should include an MSD optispark.

Just ask them.Only if the OP chooses to upgrade to a vented optispark setup. He has an unvented opti. At the same time, it would actually be cheaper to pick up an electric water pump and run a Cloyes double roller if he DOES choose to upgrade to a vented opti.
Ah didnt know that. Thanks

Go with the AC Delco opti. You answered your own question. Just ask them.
