Cloyes is a leading manufacturer of timing systems products, including a wide range of complete kits for a variety of domestic and foreign nameplates. Leveraging its expertise in timing drive systems, Cloyes utilizes the latest in design and technology to offer complete timing chain kits.
Designed for the replacement of worn or damaged timing chains, tensioners, sprockets, guides, and VVT actuators, also known as cam phasers.
Features & Benefits:
The complete kits, which meet or exceed OEM performance requirements, ensure quiet and maintenance-free experience.
Cloyes parts are CAD designed and manufactured using advanced materials. Each part is extensively tested for function and durability to ensure optimal performance.
VVT components are 100% tested during production. Test parameters include adjustable angle, leakage, locking pin functionality, friction, max oil flow, and holding duty cycle.
VVT Chain Kits include new camshaft phaser torque-to-yield (TTY) attachment bolts to ensure proper installation and phaser function.
Service Tip: Clean and sufficient oil is the key to getting maximum life from your timing system. Premature component or complete system failure can often be traced to oiling issues. Always use manufacturer-recommended oil and follow manufacturer-recommended service intervals.

Benefits of Purchasing a Complete Kit
Purchasing individual components may be less expensive up-front, but a complete Timing Chain & Component Kit provides added benefits:
✓
Improve Engine Performance: A new chain may not mesh with worn sprockets, and worn tensioners / guides won't apply enough tension, ultimately resulting in poor engine performance. Replacing all timing components together will make the whole system run more efficiently.
✓
Save Time & Money:The cost of the kit is often less than buying all of the components individually, and replacing all of the components at the same time means you only have to do the job (or pay for labor) once.
