Adding timing chain tensioner

So you did use one. Where did you get it? I'm leaning just a high quality double roller right now, like Coyles or rollmaster. I still can't believe how much slack is in mine. May be one of the reasons I haven't heard it run yet.

Right. Use the tensioner and lube it like I said.

There is no such thing as a good timing chain.

It’s the cheapest way to drive a cam. That’s why OEM’s use them.

Not because they are the most durable or accurate because they are neither.
