small block gear drive
« on: May 15, 2006 - 05:56:34 PM »
bought a Milodon gear drive for my 360. The tech at Milidon said it wasnt real loud. More like a small blower whine. ANyone have any experience with one of these?

I've always been told a gear drive is no good as it transfers vibration to the camshaft/valvetrain. Otherwise i'd probably throw one in myself.. That said, if you were going to use one, the Milodon design is the best I believe.

 I've got the Milodon geardrive on the bigblock but it hasn't been fired yet, so it's REALLY quiet right now.  :roflsmiley:  :P

The Milodons are fairly quiet when set up right.
