Yeah real tight. Never seen a chain do this.. I can straighten them, just tight. Its talking to you, the message I hear is throw it away When in doubt, throw it out

anyone ever use one of these? camdex pro gear
Checked out their website and those look real nice. It also looks like our very own Competition Wedge is a dealer for them. I would love a quote on a set. J.Rob

no luck with face book yet. i'll call tomorrow. seems like every time i need a part asap its on a holiday. Murphys law. For how much I paid for my Rollmaster I sure hope it holds up. I woulda never thought it might be defective (got lulled asleep by the price!) (I'll keep tabs on it) likely by checking play from crank up to dist

In the interest of saving money can you buy just the timing chain only for your motor? If so I would give that a thought I've done that more than once when freshening some of my race motors in the past

I drill a .015" hole in an alum 3/8 NPT pipe plug for the rear of the dr side SB horizontle gallery (& you can see its bennie when you preoil) to oil the intergear and the same in the front of the pass horizontle gallery to lube the chain (& a ~3/8 hole in the cam plate) for room for the squirt to pass thru. Gonna do the same on the 451 I just ain't figured how to preoil the intergear cuz its configured different.
