What is the advantage of a double-row timing chain?

A double-row timing chain is generally stronger and more durable than a single-row chain. This makes it a better choice for performance applications where the chain experiences higher stress.

What does the 3-keyway crank sprocket allow me to do?

The three keyways on the crankshaft sprocket provide adjustability for your camshaft timing. You can advance or retard the timing in 4-degree increments, which can help you fine-tune engine performance for better power or throttle response.

Does this timing set include all necessary hardware for installation?

This timing set includes the camshaft gear, crankshaft sprocket, and the timing chain. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for any additional hardware or sealants that may be required for your specific application.

When you're rebuilding the front of your engine, getting the timing right is crucial for performance and reliability. This COMP Cams Magnum Roller Timing Set is built for AMC 290, 304, 360, and 401 cubic inch engines from 1969 through 1981, as well as many Jeep applications from the early 70s to early 80s. It ensures your camshaft and crankshaft stay perfectly synchronized, which is key for everything from smooth idling to efficient power delivery.
