Kilby On Board Air with Mopar Jake Brake?

Has anybody tried to install both the Kilby OBA (belt-driven York air compressor) and the Mopar Jake Brake (also belt-driven)?? I know they mount on opposite sides of the motor, so that shouldn't be a problem, but what is the new belt length needed and does it work?

I've not heard of anybody doing it. If I had the choice, warranty wasn't an issue and I was going to install the Kilby, I'd go with the Pac Brake.

Not to totally de-rail your thread but....... I have to agree with Tr about the Pacbrake set-up. I love mine and its as simple as it gets.

Me too.
IS the Jacobs already on your truck?

The Pac Brake comes with a small compressor but you need a bigger one I guess?

I looked into putting a York on. I have a thread over on the CumminsForum talking about it. It can be done. But Like the other guys said I went with a vaiar comp in my toolbox and I love it.
