TVR Tuscan 2 - Timing chain Simplex conversion kit (TVR RG 102)

This is the Simplex timing chain upgrade kit for all TVR Speed 6 engines. This timing chain kit should be considered by anyone building a TVR Speed 6 engine whether it is a standard engine or heavily upgraded. This kit resolves all of the problems associated with the heavy standard duplex chains and halftime bearings as well as offering a performance benefit. The kit consists of all the sprockets and shafts associated with the timing chains on the TVR Speed 6 engine, the upgraded oil fed halftime shaft, 2 needle roller bearings races, 2 simplex timing chains, uprated later style upper timing chain tensioner and the required oil feed system. This kit offers substantial weight saving when compared to the standard timing chain components as well as repacing the standard halftime bearings which are considered to be inadequate for the job. The halftime shaft is replaced with a larger diameter, drilled shaft which allows oil to be pressure fed directly to the uprated needle roller bearings. This kit saves approximately 1.3 kgs of rotating mass from the standard TVR timing chain asssembly and is a direct replacement for the standard TVR parts with absolutely no machining or further modification work required. The kit must be fitted in its entirety and all old timing chain components discarded. This kit also includes the 2 standard simplex drive chains for the oil pumps and the water pump but does not include any sprockets associated with these 2 drive chains as these remain standard.
