Default Timing Chain for L98

hi all

which T-Chain would you recommend on a L98 ??

im tending to a dual roller Chain, opinions on it?

also, will it fit under the stock T-Chain cover?

what is the deal with the +/- 2 degree advance/retard, some of them have ??

thank you

cloyes true roller and yes it fits

Those allow you advance or retard your cam timing relative to the crank. Most people if not all install the cam straight up, or at 0* when using those gear sets.

My engine builder suggested a performer LINK chain,since they wont stretch like roller chains can.
A double roller isnt necesary on a street motor.Ive used a performer link chain for many years now and never had problems and also didnt cost alot of money.Something to think about.
