If it's not a pushrod V8, timing chain = failure design.

lol Hyundai beta 2.0's have the same valve train design cam belt drives one cam then a chain from one cam to the next. Seems to me it would make it slightly easier to put the belt on. I just helped on a mazda 626 and it was a pita to get the cams in sync and every time we got them to the damn crank would move.
