im putting the engine back together for my 94 gt just wondering if there are any advantages to the gear drive timing over a decent double roller chain. The parts arent an isssue i have both sets. It has gt40p heads a motorsport f cam trick flow track heat intake and a vortec s trim

thanks for the input Jeff

The gear drives are supposed to be more resiliant to wear and stretching. Plus they sound cool. I dont really know of any disadvantages of a gear drive, except maybe the sound too loud..maybe someone else does.

stick to a good quality double roller timing chain

my buddy put a gear drive in his vette and u can hear the gears 100ft away

use a chain...gear drive = utter waste in a street strip car

Not all but some gear drives you can easily adjust the cam timing. This kind of stuff is priceless for tuners.
