I don't have a book handy, but typically chains work better under lower speeds. A bearing supplier usually carries chain and can tell you fpm (feet per minute) guidelines and hp guidelines. Chain works well at 540 rpm but you don't see chain on 1000 rpm pto's, so the 1500 rpm crank speed may be pushing it. You can get lots of hp through a belt. Again check with your supplier and they will tell you how many hp you can get in a certain sized belt with a certain fpm speed. Others have used power steering pumps driven off the water pump. There are mixed results buying a Super M timing gear driven pump (in front of the distributor/magneto). The Super M's had a stronger drive train and some have had trouble with their timing gears unless the drive gear is changed, but others have had good results for years. The gear drive pump mimics the factory and is probably the best choice.
