400 rebuilt

Yesterday i install cam xe-256H, rebuilt 400 crank .010 under on main and rod and 4 pistons .030 over. I install pistons 1,3,5 and 7. Tonight i'm gona install 2,4,6 and 8. My deck hight is .090. My pistons are rate .092 but the machine shop deck my block .002 because 3 sleeves were drive in. I don't have my timing chain yet. Should i go with comp cam for the timing set cause i got the cam ? or Elderbroock ? I know i have to set at zero. But witch brand does ?

any brand should be fine, a double roller chain will rock and do you have your heads decked too?
