WARNING: Gear-Drive Timing Set

 A gear-drive timing set being promoted and sold via a few discussion groups is not such a good idea. Many engine builders know for longevity you do not want to use aftermarket gear-drive timing on an engine not designed for it, they prefer timing chains and belts, the reason is simple, chains and belts have a cushioning effect that absorbs shocks and makes life easier on the valvetrain.  

 Race engines that use gear-drive timing are often torn down and rebuilt or checked out every few runs! There are some OEM engines that use gear-drive timing, but those are designed that way by the manufacturers and much engineering, research and development and huge budgets support the required effort that goes in to those designs, there are many variables that must be dealt with.

 One individual who sells this gear drive I believe is now on his 4th or 5th GM 6.5 Diesel engine in his truck, he has had broken crankshafts and cracked engine blocks! I also noticed a pattern after reading number of posts or getting emails mentioning engine failures only to find out they too were running that gear-drive.

 A promotional 'tactic' that appears to be used to sell this gear-drive is the claim that the engine will make more power and/or get better mpg by using it, but the truth of the matter is the power and mpg can be gained by simply timing changing of the "TDC Offset Learn", to different specs, of course the recommend these specs with the gear drive, however this can still be done on any efi GM 6.5 that has a stock or aftermarket timing chain. No need for the gear-drive to get added power or mpg.

 To do things right, if your timing chain is stretched, then replace it with a quality OEM or aftermarket replacement, you will save a LOT of money, avoid that gear-drive and I feel you will save your engine from an early death.
