Sounds easy enough... Unless I'm mistaken, I'm under the impression that excessive slack in the timing chain is one of the top gambles in a high mileage BBV6? Or worded differently, one of the first areas requiring attention on a high mileage BBV6?

What's the advantage of having double roller set up compared to single? Less wear/stretch in the chain over time?
