Gearing question

I am moving from tv200 gearing to gp200 . The chain looked slightly loose on the front sprocket.....then I remembered I have a 46 tooth rear sprocket. Do I get a 47 tooth or would an 81 pitch chain do?

You could always use the Push down type chain tensioner allows you to use a decent new chain rather than a used /stretched one

sprockets for GP 200 gearing are 47 / 18 with 82 chain!

try 19x46 with the GP 200 box, and 82 link chain, will give 4.8 ratio, if thats gannin in ya series yin, that should pull canny.
