The Chevy inline 6 uses a pair of gears and no chain to turn the camshaft. There are high performance gear sets available from Comp and others. The cam gear on aftermarket performance timing sets is often aluminum. The undesirable gear set with the micarta (plastic) cam gear is best avoided - these were used during the mid-1970s - mid 1980s with the 250 and 292 in both passenger cars and light trucks. | The Chevy inline 6 uses a pair of gears and no chain to turn the camshaft.

In the past, a stock single outlet exhaust manifold was "split" to run two exhaust pipes from the manifold. This helped performance somewhat. Eventually the aftermarket came out with manifolds made for the inline Chevy. | In the past, a stock single outlet exhaust manifold was "split" to run two exhaust pipes from the manifold.
