So, are ALL MORSE chains now made in Mexico ?

Can we assume that the made in Mexico chains might be of less quality, & therefore subject to failure/problems, just as there were problems caused by made in Mexico lifters ?

Seeing 2 more chains stamped MORSE, still brings to my mind the chain in the Spotts Ebay listing, where he says it' a MORSE chain. It doesn't look anything like any other chain I've ever seen in a Pontiac timing set.

So, ya'll take another look at that chain. Has anybody here ever seen a chain like this up close ? If so, what markings were on it ?

Just tried to pull up the Spotts ad. It says 2 were sold--none available. So, I suppose his MORSE chain will remain a mystery, at least for the time being. But, you can still see a close-up of that chain & clearly see that the outer links are completely different from the outer links on all other Pontiac chains I've been able to find, online. They're a completely different shape.

The only chain I've seen that looks like that is called HY-VO chain. There is a close up pic at this link.

Found this Ford Racing set that uses the HY-VO chain.
