looks like a stock chain and gear to me. called a silent link belt IIRC

double roller chain looks like 2 bike chains together, the gear has 2 rows of teeth like a bike sprocket.

they do not mix.

They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.

That is definitely NOT a double roller timing set. It's your run of the mill silent link factory replacement set.

They are WRONG, this is a stock type single chain.


Take care,

I think the only way to get a double roller is ask for one for a 340. Here's one on my 340 I built in 2007. Still going strong in my car today.
