What is the best timing chain and gears these days? & best place to buy?

[jrsavoie]

I posted quite some time ago that it was probably time for a new timing set for the 94. It's going to be getting the transmission swapped.

While I was working on it I decided I should get the Fluidamper for it off the shelf and in the truck. Then I remembered the timing chain and gears. Once I get to the Fluidamper I just as well check the timing chain.

What do I need in addition to the timing chain and gears to do the swap? Timing cover gasket?

Is there a detailed thread for timing chain and gear swap?

Where is the best place to buy a timing set these days?

Is Cloyes the best?

What is the best gasket kit to get for this project? GM?

Part numbers?

I used all felpro from Napa, no seepage yet but also coated them with form-a-gasket too.

The only gasket would be Black RTV silicone, no need to buy a gasket kit, just purchase the front seal and a tube of sealer.
