timing chain

Who all changed out their stock timing chain for an aftermarket one when doing a cam swap. Just a cam swap, otherwise stock LT1 ( besides headers and exhaust)

Re: timing chain

I went with the LT4 Extreme duty set. Its good piece of mind to strengthen things since you have it off anyway.

Re: timing chain

Been using the stock chain since 1995. Just freshened the top end last year and replaced the stock chain with another stock chain as recommended by LPE...No complaints here...

Re: timing chain

What other timing chains will work on the lt4? Can I use a, let's say, a manley double roller tiiming chain for a sbc? Or a coyles? I'm far from being stock.
