      Perhaps we are too late.
      The duplex camshaft drive chain wheels, especially if the chain and tensioner are included, are a rapid upgrade as it all fits under the standard Marina timing chain cover.
      I have rarely heard of a simplex Marina timing chain failing, but if you have plans to change the cam with a higher lift one, the load on the chain increases.
      Having said that with a new cam I would always fit an adjustable sprocket to get the particular cam set spot on.

      The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

      Loads of Marlin Reference can be found documents here or there.
