Depends on what clutch drum you run. Modern space chain is to wide for some drums so be careful but EK is a good brand name. For regular narrow chain I use Dimond order it in 10' rolls from Bearing distributors.

Rob,
I am running a rev grip on a 91 mc.Sounds like I should use the diamond chain?
Thanks Dean

I think EK will work on a Horstman but not 100% sure. I'm sure someone knows HELP. I usually run Max Torque.

Dean, if it's an outboard clutch the space chain is fine. With the inboard Rev Grip there is interference with the pto bearing boss, at least on 91b1's. The clutch just sets in to far and the extra width of the chain will rub but only for a few seconds :oops:
