not sure about the gear to gear sets, but why not do a double roller setup w/ an electric wp? I've heard 13 or so hp from going electric.

If you switch out to an electric waterpump you will gain around 6-8 rwhp and will be able to run a Cloyes true roller chain. If you decide to stick with your stock waterpump than you can run an LT4 extreme timing set.

I don't think the "gear to gear" or geardrive timing sets work very well with the LT1 due to the extra noise they make, it can throw off the knock sensor.
