They never, really, got rolling, as the owner took too long to build them 1 at a time. A friend of mine, with a '68 Chevelle 425 hp/383 got one several years ago and it had issues with clearance between 2 gears and kept taking out a roller bearing. I don't recall, exactly what the issue was, but he had it out and part 3 times and it took him many months to get parts for it and then he and another friend modified some of the pieces and tightened up end play and got it working good. For now. He knows if it breaks, there is no possibility of parts anymore and it will just be an expensive shelf ornament.
Last I heard about the owner, he wasn't going to sell the patents or designs for anyone else to build them and it is dead. Could be wrong about that and never say never, but it hasn't resurfaced in recent years. Jodie Haag doesn't have any mention of them on his website, nor does 5speed.com, other than attempting to get parts, maybe.
