timing chain versus timing gears

Yah aggree with 89troop , heard a early falcon with a 302 and a gear drive, I had to ask if it had a blower, even though i new better. (He didnt have a blower to sticking through the hood)
Sounds wicked, However I dont know if I could live with it on a daily driver. Maybe im old now LOL
Id spend my money on a nice steel billet high quality roller setup from "rollmaster" or something like thiers.
I have one in my 302. (You know when you hold a nice watch it just feels expensive? Well thats the way it felt to me -precision and high quality.)

Id bet that a High quality roller would stay accurate for as long as the rest of your engine IMO.
Good luck
You failed to mention what engine you had. I assumed a 302, but this company has sets for all ford engines.
