Default Anybody used the Yank Timing set?

Thinking about buying the adjustable timing set yank sells for $80 on here. It is a single roller adjustable with the LS9 chain. It looks like they basically modified a stock cam gear to make it adjustable, all parts are GM. It looks like a great piece to me but just curious if anyone hass any thoughts on it, or experience?

PS: Im trying to stay away from a double roller because of fitment issues people have, and this is a great price.

The bushing thing is an OLD technique, that is not to say bad just been around forever.
The offset bushings slightly change the clocking of the timing gear to the cam.
