How does the water pump mount? Are you building a bracket so it can hang from the engine plate?

No, but I would be thinking if the very best timing chain you know if.
Not to make things any worse, but the lack of a damper isn't making the chain any happier either.

So you think an extra impeller is going to put an over the top extreme amount of resistance over the already 1 impeller it's driving and the shit piles of valve spring pressure that it's already turning?

Roller cam, two pumps, no damper. It all adds up. Just be sure you use a GOOD chain. There is some shit out there and some of it has well known names one them. VERY WELL KNOWN NAMES.
If the engine isn't already together, I would consider a Rollmaster set.
Stay away from ones from the cam campanies. Most of them are buying gear from Dyna Gear and the chain from a separate vendor. Ton of chain coming out of India, some with Reynolds name on them. Reynolds is a good chain, if it comes from England. But you can't tell.
