Re: Timing Chain Too Short...Have you ever heard of this issue???

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you all...busy weekend.

Anyhoo...the story goes that the sprockets were both in excellent shape and the machinist simply replaced the chain. Through a conversation with Ross it seems that the machinist is convinced that the design of the chain is just a bit different than the OEM design and therefore the tightness.

He said he tried to move the cam back and forth a bit but no good. I will visit tomorrow and note any markings on the chain/sprocket.

THANKS AGAIN,

Bill
