Katech C5R Timing Chain
Katech C5R Timing Chain LT Engine Platform #KAT-7636
The Katech C5R Timing Chain is a premium, race-proven timing solution engineered specifically for the LT series engines. Designed to withstand the extreme demands of high-performance and motorsports applications, this timing chain delivers exceptional strength, durability, and precision timing control under intense RPM, high torque, and elevated thermal loads.
Watch the VIDEO HERE.
Crafted from high-grade materials and manufactured to exacting tolerances, the C5R timing chain minimizes stretch and maximizes wear resistance compared to OE components. Its robust construction helps maintain accurate valve timing under boost, aggressive cam profiles, and track-focused duty cycles—giving you confidence that your valvetrain stays synchronized even in the harshest conditions.
Whether you’re building a pro-tuned street machine or a competition race car, the Katech C5R timing chain is a direct fit for LT engines and an essential upgrade for anyone pushing power and performance beyond stock limits.
Never broken in all of the C5-R racing and any durability testing, this easy replacement chain utilizes production sprockets (not included). This is the exact timing chain used in the Corvette Racing programs for C5-R, C6.R and C7.R. Also used in race cars from 1997-present in the ALMS and now in the United Sportscar series too. Also endurance races such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans and 24 Hours of Daytona and more. The Katech C5-R race timing chain gets proprietary features over the standard IWIS aftermarket LS chains which includes "fine blanked plates" and a proprietary pin coating. In addition because it replaces your production chain there is no need to clearance your oil pump like most double roller chains.
Key Benefits:
High-strength construction for endurance and reliability
Reduced stretch for sustained timing accuracy
Precision fit for LT engine platforms
Ideal for high-RPM, boosted, or race applications
