Those look exactly like my really old Cal Custom valve covers that I've been saving
Are yours cast in Japan?

I would use that in a heartbeat

Are those fiberglass genders from the dealer?

LOL !! I had one and was bound and determined to use it ... till I tried degreeing the cam. I'm no quitter but I finally threw in the towel on that one and sold the unit. If they'd make the idler gear the same size as the crank gear it wouldn't be a problem but they're not. And the marks are on the three gears, not just the crank and cam. So when you turn the motor over you loose all reference. That seemed to be my problem anyway.

But I don't think a gear drive was a "day 2" mod in anyone's budget unless you had a pro stocker.

Make sure you stick some white lights w/toggle on the dash mounted down on the back of the traction bars or hook a toggle to the reverse lights so you can cruise with them on meaning you are looking for a race.

If they'd make the idler gear the same size as the crank gear it wouldn't be a problem but they're not. And the marks are on the three gears, not just the crank and cam.

Never heard that before. We always just stopped at McDonalds till they asked us to leave. Must have been because we did't buy any food. LOL

I've installed and use Donovans, Milidons and Keith Black gear drives on 426 hemi and B and RB wedge motors with instructions and by memory. Start with the cam dowel placed around 4 o clock by looking at the front of the motor and go from there. If the lifters are close to being even heights in the lifter bores your close
Once I have it where I want the intake lobe center I mark all three gears with matching mark with a drimel tool

I guess I need to get back onto Donovan for a set of instructions as I want to run these on two of my cars, if it has been done many times before it must be possible with the right information & a whole bunch of patience I would imagine.

But the gear drive whine when cruising, you'd have been the coolest day 2 guy out there back in the day!

Is that Hemi motor one of the destroked 396 C.I old Pro stock motors?
if so do you race it and if so where do you shift that motor at?

I would use that in a heartbeat

As it happens I do have a Don Carlton Pro Stock Hemi in my Duster with a Ramchargers (by Donovan) gear drive so why not have one in the "day 2" car as well!

looks good but I think you stole that towel from Holiday Inn.
