Detailed Product Description

The Cloyes 9-1134 engine timing set features a double roller timing chain constructed to withstand the demands of performance applications. The camshaft sprocket is made from metal, while the crankshaft sprocket is crafted from steel, ensuring strength and longevity. This set includes keyway adjustable sprockets, allowing timing adjustments up to 2 degrees advance or retard at the camshaft, which is critical for fine-tuning engine timing in Buick models such as the Century, LeSabre, Regal, Riviera, Skyhawk, and Skylark. The roller chain design reduces friction and wear, contributing to smoother valve train operation. While sprockets are included, note that the tensioner is not part of this set and should be sourced separately if needed.
