I'll be replacing it with a belt drive this winter, I just don't dig the noise  As a paradox, the gear drive will then be going on my street 528 motor

With the stock replacement ATi superdamper you will catch the cover, don't ask me how I know

I builted a 572 and put a Milodon gear drive on and i like it  and it makes just a little noise and it works real good and looks nice  a friend run one for 15 years and now has one on a HEMI  .ATI super damper 917475E it`s a 7" alum with B V8-oem front and went right on and works GOOD LUCK.

I bought this one years ago for $50 at a swapmeet. As yet I've been unable to determine who made it. It didn't look like it had ever been used. It goes on the stock pins and then you adjust gear clearance. The idler is on the right side as opposed to most others being on the left (should that matter?). It has timing marks on the gears but they're kind of useless because the idler is not the same size as the bottom gear so as soon as the motor is turned over once, the marks won't line up again for God knows how many more turns! What I need to know is how much clearance the gears need and how you get that (I've heard you run a piece of paper though each gear and that's the clearance - about .006")
It may work if you get number one up top dead center and put a paper in the gears the marks is to let you advance or retart the timing that`s the way it should work good luck.

917475E is the ATi part # listed for non oem covers. It's for "Donavan & KB Gear drive or Indy timing cover". Sorry to be a pedant, just dont want people making the same mistake I did.

We use a gear drive as well, I switched back from a Jessel belt. gear drive is the most accurate.
