Timing chain Rattle? (Update with Video)

Why does it need double valve springs ?! Are you planning on doing super high revs ? If not - take it back to singles which reduces the wear and tear on just about everything to do with valve movements. If planning high revs etc - then yes - duplex is the way.

No idea, it just has them. It did have a turbo, if that makes a difference? I've decided not to use that though.

It sounds like it might be easier to put on a duplex chain than replace the rockers.

Yes, the kit came with new tensioner rings although stupid me did not realise they were included and ordered an additional pair - still at least I have spares
