Distributor Gear
What kind of distributor gear do i need to run with my trick flow cam. Can I run a bronze one or do i need to run steel? have a 289-302 distributor and want to make sure I don't destroy the cam

RE: Distributor Gear
I also have a trickflow cam, but havent got up to the distributor yet. Will i have to change the car with a stock distributor ? ( sorry to steal the thread, i'm also interested now )

RE: Distributor Gear
curious caus I think i already screwed up and ordered bronze. Can easily be fixed tho. Is the only disadvantage to bronze that it wears more quickly? Or will the steel in this cam cut right thru it in no time

RE: Distributor Gear
Bronze gears are "compatible" with HR cams....but it won't last.
If your distributor is the OEM/stock one.....it already has the steel gear for the HR cam, '95 dizzy right?.....no need to change gear.
So i prolly should put that gear in before i put in the distributor ?
