1) More noise than rubber belt
2) Need lubrication unlike rubber belt
3) Still stretch over time and need eventual replacement, no better than rubber belt
4) The EZ30 chain is routed in the weirdest way I've ever seen, unlike rubber belt
You have not convinced me...Way fewer timing chains break than timing belts

Ever seen the timing chain on a SOHC 427?
Or on a Porsche 911? the chain is actually integral to the case! You install the chain before you mate the case halves to each other...

EZ30's are just too leaky of an engine.
