I read some people using crf 450 timing chain? Is there any difference to using this? Im going to put a new timing chain in it also.

I have a 02 CRF chain in mine.

Pic for comparison, CRF vs. Stock.

is there any performance gain at all by replacing the cam chain, if your old chain was stretched?

no power gain but it holds up against stretching and breaking alot better than stock in my opinion. For the price well worth the peace of mind.
