Just for the record does my 2001 LHS 3.5 have a timing chain or timing belt or what? It will be a few years until I have to think of it.

Are you certain. I know they made some major changes, but my 97 Intrepid with 3.5 is a belt, but non-interference, as I learned when the belt prematurely snapped(about 60k Kms).

I believe that when they started boosting the HP that the 3.5L made, the engine changes caused it to be an interference.
