You're absolutely 'spot on' there. I forgot to include that tire link as well and was the reason why I said "in the end it does not matter much at all." The only upgrade I am considering is to lesse

A chain costs what, $25 or so? You've got the gears, your 65K mile motor is out of the car, go ahead and replace the gears and chain. As long as you keep the timing in order it's a relatively simple
