At the moment I'm trying to help my brother in law find a car for when he turns 18. As he will be on P's it has the be a V6, and because he is difficult he wants a one tonner, which leaves a VY o a VZ. Having owned Ecotecs, LS1's and a 6L, I know nothing about alloytech other than that service history is important to avoid sludging, and they have timing chain issues.
so my question is, what build dates should i look for to get a good timing chain? or was it not fixed until the VE? When test driving what are the symptoms to look for? And apart from the sellers word, is there a way to tell if the chain has already been replaced?
Thanks
