Don Scott did a writeup on why the dist gears go out. It's the cam blanks used on aftermarket cams, and 351W's seem to be one of the worst offenders. A little work with a bench wire brush seems to clean it up as you can tell with your new CC cam. Had I known this, I'd have reworked the cam gear before I installed it.
CC has a new retrofit hydraulic roller. 224/232. Seen it? Mine is the 224/224. New one seems to have a slightly wider power range, but less lift. Let me know how yours works out.
I'll let you know what I think of gear.
