    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
    well the roller master is not made in the Usa or the chains . i used many many sets of them Rolon chains over the years we did things to them some only dream of there far from junk . as some may think Cloyes use Renolds chains ..? that.s ROLON / RENOLDS
