Anyone know who stocks these? I believe the Rollmaster is a vernier adjustable kit, with an Iwis chain, which is meant to be the better chain?? Any help appreciated. Thanks |

Im using a dual row timing chain which i think is rollmaster. It was also meant to be vernier adjustable. But the adjustability of it is limited, as it just has 4 (i think) keyway grooves on the crank sprocket (i think). Its not like those flash ones that ive seen with allen head screws on the inner part of the sprocket to allow for more adjustability. But on the invoice, it clearly states Vernier Adjustable Dual Row Timing Chain. I dunno....? |

but do you know if it actually works? i suppose the only way you could see it turn was if you had it in gear, when you were pushing the car up onto the trailer.

vernier adjustable just means that the offsets are slightly different for each hole, and when you mate different holes with the crank hole, a slightly differnt alignment is the result. have a look at a real set of vernier calipers and you will see what i mean. if it had the allen bolts in slots, then that would be infinitely adjustable tooth to tooth, because you can offset the alignment by any amount you choose. it is not restricted by fixed offets. cheers michae |

All good comments (except for Cush's) but does anyone know where I can get the Rollmaster chain kit? Karcraft don't sell it. VPW doesn't sell it (doesn't look like it anyway). |
