It’s a straight up install, instructions are easy to follow.

Thx

My fault, I thought that spec sheet I posted said there was a double installed. Is the Cloyes setup a straight up install? Or is there some clearancing or anything else involved? I just want to replace the stocker and have a durable, yet easy install. My van has 147,000 on it, and it seemed to have alot of slack in it. Just want take care of that on the 6.0--just in case.

Want an LS2 style timing damper? I ended up reusing my original tensioner setup.

The LQ4 doesn’t use a damper or tensioner.

You don't need a double timing chain, and if you did get one you would need to clearance the timing cover which you don't really want to do. I used a Cloyes roller timing set, you might look into their stuff- it's top notch.

Are you running their chain setup?

I appreciate the thought.

Def trying Pete. Still waiting on my buddy--whenever he decides he can get to it. My motor is still at his place. Last I heard he's in Florida. Just wanna start getting my ducks in a row.

Yep. Like I said, I’m running their timing set- chain and sprockets.

Forgot about that. Well, damn.
