Shouldn't you swap yours out first to verify that it is in fact the problem, before ripping the company? I dont have their product or endorse them, but I think you should cover all bases before tainting their products.

Glad you got it straightened out I knew there were some issues with them on gen IV motors and people blaming them for broken timing chains but never heard of any issues on the gen III's.

Hey now that it's warming up it'll be time to hit the beach so I'll be looking out for you and Jamie. You guys still at AA??

If the ASP was the cause you can get a fluid dampened UD pulley and avoid those issues...

98TADRIVER:

did there appear to be any obvious flaw with the UD pulley you pulled off (i.e. by eyeballing the pulley)...?

no flaws, bought it from a guy on the vette forum who claimed to have zero issues with it. even when it was on the car and the car was idling/revving it looked straight. no wobble

Glad it fixed it, I knew that was it after I read about three or four posts in. It's funny how no one believed me 3 years ago when I posted up what fixed my car and it still holds true today.
