  1. From what I've seen chain drive systems is the better choice if they are. A) Designed properly B) Made with quality parts I can think of several engines that have poorly designed/made chain drive systems including: Hyundai Theta II GM Alloytec V6's Mazda MZR turbo VW 2.0 TSI Clearly there's a lot of good ones too. What I really don't like about chains though is the difficulty/cost of servicing if it does need changing. It's also a lot harder to access just to inspect it. Really the only time I've known of a modern belt to snap was on an engine that's severely neglected. Personally I've done belt changes at 100,000 kms and they looked great still. I wouldn't double the distance I drive on them, but the fact that a lot of belt driven cars are scheduled for 160,000kms change intervals speaks worlds about how good they are these days.

  2. Love your videos. I'm only an amateur enthusiast, but with an engineering background. I've learnt so much from your videos and this is one of the best.
