Honestly, if your cam sensor is turning when you crank the engine, I doubt seriously your timing chain is at fault. There is a rule in troubleshooting, always try the easy obvious things first.
Well finally got time to pull this thing apart last night and halph of the teeth on the cam gear were missing. Glad i didnt buy any parts yet. So in the morning im going to order a double roller. I thought i woul of seen this in my compression readings but I guess not. Thanks for the help everyone.
Really? well i ordered it from full throttle. So what do you do if this happens? Just send it back and tell them it was to long or short? And I did a search on timing chain replacement and i read that some people had to purchase a cam button Do you no if this is neede with the one from full throttle?Double rollers come in different lengths, there is a chance that when you put the 1st one on, the timing chain will have to much slack or not enough, if your lucky it will be just right. Again don't use the timing chain tensioner with the double roller chain, it will chew it up.

OK thanks man chain should be here tommorow.Jay,
The cam button keeps the cam from walking (moving) to far foward, it's just a round cap with a spring behind it that goes in the end of the cam shaft. You might as well replace it while you are right there, it's up to you really.
Call Mike at full throttle and ask him, on my last build I had a standard double roller on hand and it was to loose, so I got the next size smaller and it was perfect. Mike will bend over backwards to keep you happy!
