[QUOTE="RadioHowie, post: 576593, member: 426"] Mike, the chain is only $23. Why would you NOT change it? Unless you pissed all yer money away on crawdads, tequila and fast wimmin'. :) [SIZE=8pt](I got one with only 56k on it you can have)[/SIZE] The ONLY extra work to pull the chain out, assuming your cams are out for valve adjustment, is to pull the ignitor rotor off the end of the camshaft. I'd have to get a REAL good explanation from the shop if they charged more than a 1/4 hour for the extra work, considering everything else is already out. Like the Nike ads said......"Just Do It!" Edit: "ignitor rotor off the end of the CRANKshaft." [/QUOTE]
