Which Timing Chain Set?

Who makes a good timing chain set that is somewhat affordable?

On 92-94 lt1s you cant run double rollers, the Lt4, or the Extreme duty chain sets unless you convert to a vented opti. To covert, you'll need the vented opti, a 95-97 cover (95 prefered), plug harness, vaccum lines, and a longer cam dowel pin. Do a search if you want a list of all the parts and p/n's

If your planning on running the non-vented opti, the only options are the stock set and the Lunati set. Most agree that the stock set is just as good or better than the Lunati set.
