In the world of engine design, “simple” is a thing of the past. In this video, we dive into why modern timing chain systems require so many more components than traditional pushrod engines.

What we cover:

-Pushrod vs. DOHC: Comparing the compact timing of a GM LS engine to a modern high-feature V6.

-The Distance Factor: How moving camshafts to the top of the cylinder head necessitates longer chains and more robust support systems.

-Critical Components: The role of tensioners and guides in maintaining precision over greater distances.

At Cloyes, we’re dedicated to providing the technical knowledge and high-quality parts needed to master these complex systems.
