I haven't heard any bad things from the LS-2 chain sets, what exactly happened Rick?

The LS2 chain is definitely an upgrade from the standard truck chain and those are holding up fine as well.

Im using a Comp hex adjustable chain set with upgraded JWIS chain where I can degree in the cam.

Yea, I havent heard of any problems with them either... It should be fine for my 8,000 red line. lol

That sounds like a sweet chain set-up, Derek. any clearance issues with it?

I was like what the hell DID makes timing chains. Get the O ring ones, they are better.

Here are the pics for the chain.

You can see the chain is not a true roller and rather a split bearing design.
