I purchased this on Moparts, I think from Mr P-Body, and have been running it for the last 2 years with no issues at all. It seems to be a well designed system but I don't think I've ever seen or read where anyone else was using one so I thought I would post so e pictures of mine and give it thumbs up review So does anyone else use one of these? They work differently than the Jessel belt drive system, for one they use an idler pulley and an eccentric bolt to adjust the tension they also use torrington bearing on the cam pulley, which means that you use different timing cover gaskets to set the cam end play where Jessel uses shims. It's worked great for me and I would recommend them if your looking for belt drive timing system. Australian Muscle Parts

I didn't know that either. I just ordered a new belt and replacement eccentric bolt from him last week and he didn't mention that...

i've been using one for 8-9 years now. great piece especially with the idler which a Jesel doesn't have. i'm now at the point that everytime i freshen the motor i can get the cam centerline perfect first time.
Jesel uses the idler with the raised cam version.
I have a new Jesel for standard cam location with extra belt if anyone is interested
