Lt1 accessorie questions

I want to find a strong double roller timing chain that is adjustable for degreeing the cam. I found several companies but they want $400 what in the hell!!!!! I am running the csi electric water pump.

If anyone could give me guidence on a doller roller timing chain for my cam. LT4 timing chain?


Also for the gaskets besides head gasket, will the oem acdelco gaskets for the main seals, oil pan, timing cover, intake, etc. good enough, or shoud I get mr gasket etc. Opinions welcomed

Thanks Mark Tisdale

The one i want is addjustable and they want 400 for it that is crazy. I am ending up using all stock gaskets for everything but the head gaskets and going to use mr gaskets for the intake and what not. I am going to use nitrous so i am willing to have a better seal up top.

Is the lt4 a double roller timing chain, anybody bought an addjustable one lately and how much did you pay.

If you're running a CSI electric pump, then you can use a double roller from gen 1 SBC with a factory roller cam (i.e., L98)... I think mine was ~$70.
