I had gear drive for a bit in my 351W. Started eating distributor gears, could not figure out why. Put in a double roller, now she is quiet and I have not ate a gear in 5,000 miles. Gear drives sure sound good though.

Default Timing gear
Last timing gear motor I heard was on my 65hp flathead 38' Ford. Not sure if that was the hp at the rear wheels or motor only. My wife has a dog that makes a mean noise but when you see the mutt in action you laugh.

Looks like a double row roller chain is the way to go. Thanks to you all as always for your expertise!
