As long as you got the 5/8 to 7/8 free play at the top of the chain when engine is cold you will be fine for along time. If you dont have the play in the top it might look like the other forum post you showed us.

I made triple sure the free-play was correct.

I have been running one in a 131 for the past 10,000 miles and cant imagine one getting bent. They are heavy and work great. The one question I wanted to confirm was if you can fit a compensaver in the primary when using the baker.
