I am rebuilding a 69 Camaro L78 (396/375) engine. I need some help on a replacement timing chain set. The engine will have stock cam and solid lifters. I do not want to grind on the block, etc. and want the chain to fit under the stock timing chain cover. I do not want to change the pulley alignment. The engine is not a race engine and 6000 rpm is the maximum.

I'm looking at Cloyes roller sets (street or street billet) or the Rollmaster set. I would like to use the bronze thrust plate to eliminate wear on the block. Why make things more complex by using the needle bearing thrust plates?

Any advice? Thanks
