I know they're pretty expensive, especilly the gear drives, but where can I get a good for less than $100, less than $75 even. I am putting in a new cam, and I'll need a new timing chain too.

------------------
1987 Chevy Camaro IROC-Z
L98 TPI 350 (5.7L)
TH 700R-4 Transmission with 2.77:1 Rear End

Current Mods: Edelbrock TES 1 5/8" Headers, Hooker 3" Aerochamber Cat-Back System, Performance Resource Chip with 160* Thermostat, Accel Ignition Coil, Cap, Rotor, 8.8mm Wires, K&N Filters, JET TPI Air Foil, All Free Mods, Falken ZIEX Z-Rated Tires.

Best ET : 14.32 @ 97.7mph
(corrected for elevation)

Soon to come: LT4 HOT Cam, Air Flow Research 190cc Heads, 2800 RPM Stall Converter and SLP 3.70 Rear End Gears.

 

I'm pretty sure the Edelbrock one for an '87-up is less than $100. I think it might even be around $50.

1991 Z28 - 350 TPI, T56, Centerforce Dual Friction clutch, ported plenum & runners, AFPR, Holley Annihilator ignition box and wires, Hooker shorty headers w/o AIR, no cats, Flowmaster muffler, homeade ram-air, SSM subframe connectors, Steve Spohn adjustable torque arm and T56 crossmember

 

If you have a stock roller cam, you need a special timing chain. GM has single roller chains with all the accessories for around $50. Check out SDPC above.

 

Summit Racing carries an Edelbrock double roller timing chain for our cars for above $46. The part # is EDL-7800 (I think).
Give em a call at 800-230-3030

I installed this one back in 1995 and have had no problems.

There may be better ones, but for the money, the Edlbrock timing chain is a good buy.
