Gear drive

The lists are short.

Pros:
-Pinpoint timing (especially @ higher RPMs above the 7K range)
-Milodon SB setup can be used on old hemis (33/354/392) as well
-Cool sounding

Cons:
-Robs a little power vs a good double roller chain setup (not really necessary on a setup that doesn't see approx. 7K and above)
-Cost
-Minor additional installation/setup
-Sound may not be pleasing to some (although very quiet compared to other setups)

Thank you for your reply on the gear drive. I think I will have to hear the Milodon unit in a Mopar small block before I decide which way to go since the amount of acceptible/likeable "whine" is a subjective experience. I have the Milodon unit sitting right next to my Rollmaster timing set so I have the option to go either way.

Based on your lengthy experience with the Milodon, what are the pros and cons?

Thanks again for all your help.
