Just took a JP Performance (Australian made if I recall) off my car,,,, it stretched to the point it was slapping the cover,,

I don't think it could handle the 510FWTQ,, the local engine builder that put it on @ 15k miles ago said he had never seen a chain stretch like that,, I posted a video on this forum if you do a search you can watch

If your local guys are using them with good reports, then give it a go.

hi Larry,
i heard that the v8 super touring cars that are fords and holdens that run approx 600 bhp also are supplied by jp performance and must have good results as these cars are full time profesional race cars in a similar leaue to your Nascar race cars here in Australia.
i suppose i will just have to give it a go i guess.
thanks for your concern larry
cheers
