Timing chain set

I put one on my 273 with a roller chain. I wouldn't do it again. Yes, they are designed for standard chains and not double rollers. If I ever need to take the front of the engine apart I will take it out. Not necessary with a good double roller.

I have one of them tensioner.
My chain was too tight to us it.
Figured that I would install it if I pulled it down for some reason. Maybe not.

The chain stretch, will still be stretched. With or with out the tensioner. Aka will not restore the cam timing, you degrees in previously.
