a&a will make them and they actually answer their phone too
... they have 2 designs now, the older one is similar to the cartek flip drive and the newest design will require a new balancer and it doesn't use the ac belt to drive the jackshaft pulley

But cartek still open but those guys do a lot of racing may take you a few times to get up with them. But now it is winter I would say you shouldn't have any problems.

when is 10 rib recommended ??
I have 10 od IW balancer and A&A drive

max spin rate is 7500 with d1x
I thow they are a bit lazy but I'll bet it makes plenty of power even at 6500 and a bit less CFMs

You deleted our cog driven direct drive? Or a Cartek direct drive purchased through us? Our direct drive is the only system available that has a stronger belt running the accessories then the six rib belt it drives. All others use a four rib belt to drive a six rib belt, something GM would never do.

And, Paul… now that you’ve retired, time to step up your game and come run 8.50 with us. Or, at least make the drive to run 10.oh..
