What's up with Rollmaster timing chains.?
I've been looking for one and I can't seem to find one.
Anyone have any leads on where to purchase.? Most of the usual places are out of stock or sold out.
Amazon doesn't have any. Epay has one, but it's for a motor that has been line bored.
The same with Romac balancers. Can't find any of those either.
I've sent an email to them but haven't heard anything back yet.
Thanks..!

I got one about four or five weeks ago.   I think it came from Summit but I don't have any easy way to confirm that now.  Did not save a receipt.  Joe

Just do a Google search for one and then click on shopping. I search around the internet and find out who has the lowest prices. eBay's fee's have just about priced the sellers out of business. A lot of sellers can still sell what your after, but as demand has dropped for AMC parts in favor of newer engines they just don't put those parts in their ads or printed material.

I appreciate the response's, but there is nothing out there that I can find. I've tried to search with Bing and Google. Everywhere I look for one, it is unavailable or on back order.
Summit, Jegs, Speedway. Carid, eBay, Amazon, nothing. Big fat goose egg.

I always use Yahoo search... They ended Altavista mid last year, but still works fine. GOOGLE and DuckDuckGo don't search well enough, though an old tried and true search engine called dogpile works very well, if you don't mind having a combined effort search.

I emailed rollmaster and received an email saying that they have 20+ in stock. He said to call 616-247-6572 ask for MJ.
Life's too short to be stock!!

I like RollMaster but You need to inspect it. The one I purchased a year and half ago had an oil slinger groove cut right at the Distributor Oil feed passage. I had to braze it up.

I also read from another AMC site that Rollmaster Australia was contacted and was going to correct this.
