I know Manley sells a double roller 73205 and 73206 Are there any others? Thanks! 73 `Cuda Instagram: @rylispro YouTube: RylisPro www.rylispro.com 925-214-9192

I'm using a 6.1 timing set from mopar. That's all I would use in terms of factory parts. I don't know anything about the Manley parts.

Stock chain is for stock applications but how is it for sustained high rpm use? Road racing for example? 73 `Cuda Instagram: @rylispro YouTube: RylisPro www.rylispro.com 925-214-9192

The factory stuff is tougher than people give credit. The only non factory parts in my shorrtblock are the cam and valve springs.

The keyway says "Made in USA" but I'm betting everything else is chinese. So I guess it's what kind of take out you prefer Mexican or Chinese 73 `Cuda Instagram: @rylispro YouTube: RylisPro www.rylispro.com 925-214-9192

Mostly on 5.7 backing plates. One of our 392's for a shop car had a broken tensioner plate and the nylon portion just fell into the oil pan. That was so incredibly lucky. BTW Jerry...I called the shop the other day to ask you a question and the guys told me you retired?

Summit and Jegs description says it has a Torrington bearing, but mine doesn't. Comp's site was giving me fits just now when I was trying to search and read their description.
