Years ago a guy I worked on a project with Butch Lightfelt,and he utilized a production tensioner and fit it to big-blocks to help w/chain stretch curious if any of you run one or know what I could adapt to my 400 block. Thankxxx..............

Buy a good timing set and forget about it loosing tension Keeping the chain tight does not stop the stretching, which makes the cam timing change BTW, Butch was always cheap

I just figured if worked for small-blocks, it would work for me. Butch is a VERY interesting man for sure.
