Ok,so I took off my head on my F22C1 and installed my inlinepro 3mm head gasket.What I am curious on is should I replace my timing chain.The AP2 has a little over 22000 N/A miles and am going turbo now.All advice is much appriciated,
Thanks in advance.

 

no

 

Ur good to go!!!

 

Thanks for the responce's every one.

 

i was just wondering this also I haven't ever seen something that tells me to replace it but i have over 100k and i know chains don't really need replaced but even on motorcycles over time they streach out and need replaced. has anyone ever broken a chain.

 

i havent torn down enough s2000 motors to know, but nearly every high mileage k-series motor seems to have a good ammount of chain stretch.

if its off i'd replace it.

 

I've never seen a bmw or mercedes chain that ever needed to be replaced, and I tore down lots of them. I think a little bit of stretch is okay, that's what the TCT is for.

 

i just looked on www.hondapartscheap.com the chain is ~$70 there is really no good reason not to replace it when doing a rebuild

 

well with a thicker HG a little stretch is good...right?

 

idk, i'd never use a thicker headgasket either way
