This is just my understanding but I belive it is beacse the L98 timing chain has been used for so maney more years there is more demand for them thusly they can be made in larger qunaties for more of a discount, where as the LT1 is only used for 5 or so years smaller quanities = larger mfg costs.

If that were true and the LT1 chain was the same as the L98 chain, it would be the same price.
Different chain.

the timing set is 150...the chains themselves are the same...the gear are what makes the lt1 set more money...its becase the cam gear has a gear on the back of it for the water pump.
i know becasue i paid 19 dollars for a cloyes chain for my LT1
