Short Timing Set

[TTipe]

I have a 109 block which been decked more than 0.010. Is there a supplier of a timing set shorter than 0.010" under the nominal crank center line to cam center line?

I run a .010 and I don't think there is.

Decking the block doesn't impact the crank to cam dimension and associated timing chain length.

If you read it, he meant line bore

Maybe not it's hard to read minds these days :lol:

I to though he was talking about decking the block, which would not change the crank and cam locations.

I read that too but I knew what he meant. LOL

Sorry about saying decking. I mean't line boring/honing. Running out the door while trying to post (duh).

If a .010 under won't be tight enough, you may need to use a TA Performance billet gears and link type chain and use a tensioner. On a roller, if you have 1/4" - 1/2" play on the slack side, you will be OK.
