Never guess who I got this from... Yep, you guessed it,that mystical man himself, Rich_W. I bought this from him yonks ago and was going to use it in my race engine but I'm now moving to a dry sump so this isn't required. I know 3 people who have had the standard oil pump chain snap under heavy use, one with dire consequences so if you're spending a lot of money on your engine why not spend a bit more and buy this too?! Can't remember why they are better, something to do with the pins between the links which are the weak link (bud um tssssh!) on the standard chains. Good enough for 450bhp@8500rpm, good enough for you!

The rollers on the pins are tubular rather than rolled with a split and butted together. I found these for Rich, nobody on one has had a failure so far so they must hold up better.
