What about a belt drive??
Fullchat289 Hi Al. What about a Dannybee belt drive? I think they cost about 700.00$ Clog belt can be spun to 10,000rpm as a tensioner on it. The belt should last 40,000 mile of hard abuse and help stop harmonic of the engine running. They use this kind of belt on most overhead cam motors. I am building a 484 or 496 Shelby and are going with a Danny bee for this motor. I like the ability to change the cam timing in 15 minutes if needed while on the dyno to set the motor up for the best tork and hp numbers. As far as I know the belt gets no service. The water pump covers it to protect it from harms way. You could build a cover or shield if you wanted. Hope this helps Rick Lake
