I'm not all that educated on this whole distributor gear problem. Honestly, all I did was tell Keith Craft that when he shipped my MSD distributor to custom curve it to spec for the cam and application, and to put whatever gear he thought was best for the cam he was supplying. It came with a bronze gear on it. Are you saying that this bronze gear will be a problem? Are you also saying that hydraulic roller cams don't have a distributor gear problem but solid roller cams do? I wasn't aware of that. Any idea why they would be different? Thanks.
