laser block aka know as post 84 blocks don't have enough room for dual chains you have to use the single ones.

well i found A COVER THAT IS ACTUALLY 1/4" DEEPER SO I THING IT WILL WORK NOW BUT I HAD TO FIGHT A CELICA AT THE JUNK YARD TO GET IT AND THE OIL PUMP DRIVE IS A HALF THE SIZE OF A SINGLE ROLLER BEHIND IT SO IM PRETTY SURE IT WILL WORK NOW

the dual chain timing covers are 1/4 in taller if it is same height as the block it should work.
