timing chain question

trying to determin strech
i line up the marks on the cam, the crank said 1 BTDC or 0

so my chain is kinda new?, i ordered a new chain, i got the injectors done with 256 nozz, im thinkign i should just do a IP drip adjustment and see how it runs?

could i gut and plug the inj return lines from a injector and mod a compresstion tester on the end?-cant find a end

ill take any imput

256 is the wrong nozzle, perhaps you meant 265?

To accuratly check the chain stretch you will have to use a dial gauge and read the archives for proccedure. Both lines lining up is a good indication things are not really bad but does not give an actual stretch reading.
