Timing chain replacement time
After puting new lifters or cam followers, I checked the timing chain. It was at least 5 degrees. New chain time I guess
What brand of chain should I order? What special tools are needed? How do I replace the chain Any input would be helpful thanks

5 degrees is not that bad, check and see if there are cam offset keys available in that amount first!

I found the timing chain replacement write up for om616 and om617 s would that be the same for my motor?
I thought people said after 4 degreesto change the chain? or should i?

It's not the same family of engines but the overall procedure isn't too different. There's a different procedure for resetting a 60x timing chain tensioner.
