I have no idea why everyone as had these problems with the double roller. Plenty of clearance...and it slipped right on. I'm not a fan of SLP, but I go with what has been working and people around here like them and have had NO issues with their Roller/HD Oil pump pakg. I have about 8 or so installed in the area....not one phone call. Most of these guys are high 10's low 11's and pushin' 6500-7200 between shifts. Sorry you guys are having such a bad experiance with DR's. Chris

FWIW, we don't use them. Heavy duty GM chain, or in all-out applications we use a Jesel belt drive.

Yeah, I use one with my 370 setup and 600rwhp on 150 shot.
I don't even think about it twice.

Spacers always strike me as a hack. Why don't folks run the Cloyes timing set? Looks strong, it's adjustable, priced the same as competitors, and single-row. Set 9-3153A

Scroll to page 12

SDPC, among others, sells them
