Only the heavy duty engines in large trucks had the double roller timing set from the factory. You can get all three pieces still if you want a roller timing set.

We just had a group buy of double roller chains, and here is some info that started it:
Quote:
Pieced together a premium set (double-roller) at rock auto for a 64 Dodge W300

Crank: (25 teeth)
Cloyes S339 $21.79

Cam: (50 teeth)
Cloyes S338 $49.79

Chain: (66 double links 3/8" pitch)
Cloyes C168 $14.05


Total $85.63
Less 5% $4.28

Parts cost $81.35

Shipping varies, but $11.18 for me to CA. So this may be highest expected.

Grand Total $92.53

(didn't buy, just priced it out)
Olaf.

You could also just get one off ebay, a JP billet 9 keyway from Falcon for $110 shipped. Very nice and shipped it quick, less headache IMO.
