Which chain ??

[Jon1wdsmen]

With a few choices in cam chains I think I ordered the wrong one
From MikesXS, will the Part #52-4048 219FTSS x106 Endless Cam Chain
Work on 1980 xs650g Or should I get the Mikes Part #52-4008

The 4008 has a riveted link, the 4048 is an endless, which means it comes with solid factory pressed links all around. they are the same size and length. Don't know if the endless can be installed in an XS 650, but it is notable that even though they're the same link count and size, the description of the endless does not list XS650 fitment.
I'm relatively sure it can be done, but wait for an answer from someone who has actually done it.

Same length same link count sooooo...... I plan on splitting the case for 5th gear upgrade with new guides I just need to get it threw the Tensioner bar base.
