BDL is Marketing a 2" Open Primary for M8

[Free Bird]

Maybe I am just late to the party, but it appears as if BDL has developed an open belt drive for the Milwaukee Eight platform. I am having trouble getting example installations except the one below (and I have no specifics on it...it came off of eBay) but there are several folks offering them for sale in black, chrome, and polished.... Here are some pictures. I will post more as I learn more...

That was for Jack K. and MDO)

If anybody else has additional info.... I bet we'd love to hear about it....
