I know alot of performance engines use doulbe decker timing chains...im buying add-ons for my sr20 and i was wondering if anyone knew of any aftermarket companies that offered these?? or is it a bad idea?? is it possible!!

Why? The Sr's Have Tensioners So There Is No Need For The Added Weight And Width Of The Chain.... You'd Be Better Off Converting To Belt Drive If You Were Looking To Upgrading Your Timing Set.

It isn't a high drag pushrod engine with insane springs to take care of slack. OHC engines don't have a lot of drag and aren't going to put that much load on the chain.
