Thread: Timing chain: Chain stretch due to out sourced or imported parts

Tweet

Most aftermarket chains seem to be Cloyes and all I've seen still say Made In USA - even the Summit house brand are just repackaged Cloyes.

Not sure what the difference is, some say Tru Roller, others are just double link chains according to the info and advertising.


PS - just looked at a new $$ Comp Cams brand timing set - gears made in The US, the chain is a Rolon, made in India. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I have a used Cloyes stashed somewhere and may have to look at that one too and add my .02 on that one as well
