Hello all,
with the rattle from the front of my 948 Sprite
powered, road-going Lotus Seven's engine diagnosed as
worn timing chain/gears, I'm prepared to replace them.
I can get a single row chain kit from Moss for $14.95
(cheap I thought!) or I can get machined steel gears
with duplex chain kit from APT for about $119.00 (more
like what I'd expect for a performance part) I know
I'll have to countersink some screws with this too.
Question: should I upgrade to the high quality duplex
set-up considering my Seven is driven as a road and
not a race car? Is the Moss kit garbage, or might it
be sufficient? The rest of the motor is stock as far
as I can tell.
Thanks in advance for support and input.
