Question Crane adjustable timing chain

Will the Crane adjustable timing chain set from VHP work with my cam swap on my LQ9 6.0?

It will but I would recommend an ls2 timing chain and stock gears. Ask Vinci to see if they have the advance you want already ground into the cam.

while the manley is cheaper, in order to make any changes, you have to pull the oil pump and crank gear. with the crane, all you do is loosen the allen bolts, turn the center section where the cam bolts to it and retighten.

here's a pic of it in my 408 motor. i used the LQ9 block. no clearance issues.
