Cam chain type?
 
Last summer, my camchain snapped in half after about 40k of service.
I already read some posts on this forum that call for DID SCA-0412A-SDH type camchain, but all I can find is the SDHA version. Does anyone out there know if the SDHA type would work?

Thanks

Yeas it will - it's a 152 link chain - you'll have to remove two pins.

No valves bent eh ?

I was worried about it because I'm not gonna lay down $120 for a chain just to have it break a few hundred miles down the road.

As for bent valves, i'm assuming not...Won't know for sure until I do a compression test though. However, I cranked it over and it sounded like it had decent compression.

Thanks for your reply though :icon_smile:

$120 ?

I think they can be had for a good bit less man.

Wow! You're more game than I am. If you've got no cam chain and managed to crank the engine and not do damage to (some) valves and pistons... whew, you must have lady luck sitting on your shoulder..?
