As long as it's for an OE roller engine you'll be fine. Just wondering, did you try a search?

I don't give a crap what anyone says. Rollmaster from Scoggin Dickey part SDCS1090. It's one pound lighter than the stock POS too:

It's from the land down under so it's weighed upside down

Stock GM chain is fine, but I do like that Roll master as well.

If you want dual roller, the Cloyes billet ones are nice. I have one in my 355
