timing chain

Old Time Jeeper
Ok so P/S box is finished and was wondering if maybe while i had the radiator
out to flush (also to make room to put P/S box back in) if I should go ahead and put a new timing chain in. Well found a test for stretched chains and was stated that if you turned the engine and had turned more than 5 degrees before the rotor moved then it's stretched enough to change. Holy poop mine turned a hair over ten degrees. Didn't seem like much just grabbing and turning but when i watched the timing marks while turning that's what it turned up. Maybe that's why i have that little miss and or sometime backfire. Sorry so long but hope this helps someone else who may have the same symptoms as mine. Oh and what flavor timing chains do you prefer?
