okay sothey must have gave me a 95 timing set. okay so where do i get a good roller set FAST
If you are running the stock 94 opti, you must use a cam gear that has the splines in the middle as Fred said. You have very few options from the stock gear. I don't know of anyone that makes a roller with the splined cam gear. There are a couple high performance sets (like from Doug Rippie) but just the cam gear is $370 (and it's still not a roller chain). I think Lunati might have one, but it is much like stock and I have heard of a few failures with it.
You are pretty much stuck with a stock type timing set, unless you do a vented opti conversion.
there is 2 diffrent timing set for the lt1. one is from 93-94. it is diffrent in the cam sprocket itself drives the optispark shaft. then you have 94-97 or gen II lt1 where the pin on the cam shaft drives a separate gear that drives the optispark. i did find 2 aftermarket cam sprockets for the 93 and 94 but they where over 400.00 dollar each. so a timing set that says it will fit 93-97 is not correct. the lt4 is gen II lt1 and the same as 95-97. At this point i could have swapped out almost. i replaced everything ecepet the cam at this point.
