Not Ranked
Ahhh.... We're both right!...or neither of us is right depending on how you look at it...
I just checked the catalog too and they have footnotes.. (#5) where a steel gear is needed. They also state that bronze gears are not needed on nodular cams and that not all roller cams require it... They also say to call them to find out what you have.
Here's my first cam from them.. the gear eater. It's obviously billet. I just checked the new cam I got from them....It's not! I don't care for a company that mixes and matches like that. In any case I'm going to be running the composite gear so it really doesn't matter for my application, but this is a good lesson for me and possibly others about to do the same thing. Don't assume!
Thanks for the input Jeff and ItBites... I certainly learned from it.
