I have been looking at getting one of the billet timing chains for my 351W stroker build-up. I have read that these have a tendency to prematurely wear out the thrust plate. Also, I have read you must get either the torrington bearing or the bronze bushing with a billet timing set. What are you experiences with these timing chains?

I have found one on E-Bay for cheaper than most name brand chains. It is more than likely a re-packaged brand of some sort. Which, is usually the case with the name brand products also. Here it is:

What do you guys think?
 
I would spen the money and get a good cloyes trual dual roller set and run the torrington bearing (cheap from summit) your ebay link dont work for me but I know some of the cheapers ones were the ones I heard of failing. I personally am running a cloyes ts but Im also running a cleveland motor so maybe my .002 arent valueable as some one else...
