68S - should I add to the engine ?
I recently acquired a 68S targa and have engine out for refreshments and cleanup .
Question : should I add the timing chain conversion to hydraulic pressure? It's about 5 grand. I feel like not doing it. Am I cheaping out ? |

There's heaps of posts on here and in the engine rebuilding forum regarding this modification.
For my 67S engine I used 930 tensioners and wide idler arms. andy |

No Brian. The pressure fed are not much of an upgrade.
You may have early chain boxes that would not take them anyway. Wide tensioner arms and turbo tensioners are recommended |
