Rollmaster from Star Performance....coincidence?

Its either a stock photo of the same part rebranded or perhaps with a better IWIS chain?

the Howards has a flush face and a black anodized crank cog but little difference otherwise. I think alot is in the chain.

Absolutely.
The JP I use had a chain manufactured by a Japanese motorcycle chain company.
I have it on the bench now and will take a pic.
And yes I always heard the 2 name brands were manufactured from the same factory.
The rollmaster was hyped by its jap motorcycle chain, One that didn't stretch much cause it was more hardened.

Honestly.. it "jp" worked fine , though It did stretch more than the Mancini brand did, small amount...but still.
Once you go with a billet set ...it really all comes down to the chain.

The JP performance I have uses a "rol-on" chain.
