I think the new ones are sfi approved and the old ones aren't.I have the old one and IIRC it has absolutely no markings on it whatsoever.If I didn't buy new from thunder racing I wouldn't even know it was an asp.I've never had an issue with mine though.

The new ones are SFI approved as said before and they aren't goin to fall apart like some of the old ones have because they're balanced better.

Yep,what everyone else said. Mine has a sfi stamp on it,it has the higher edges to help with not throwing belts and is machined shorter for double timing chains.Its about 2 years old as well.I'm not sure exactly when they changed the style.
