often reffered to as the poor mans blower. they are noisy!
fwiw
i don't have any real hand experience with them myself but have heard that they are hard on camshafts due to the harmonics transfer.

i have always bought the summit brand double roller for mine and never had a problem

aparently the dual idlers have problems.
go with the milodon.
(hard to believe that you can have timing issues with a gear drive they're solid!)

I've been running one of these from jegs so far so good. And it is not as noisey as I thought it would be.

Not sure the brand but I know 3 of these that were all installed in BB Mopars about the same time and all 3 broke! I do not trust them at all. Not sure what happened or why they came apart but these were in race engines running solid flat tappet cams and all were installed by the same reputable builder.

We have always ran a double roller chain and have never had an issue! Hard to beat a good chain setup for reliability and value IMO.

Rollmaster is better - they use an IWIS chain under license - by far the strongest chain on the market
