RETRO-FIT ROLLER CAMS... Install

For those of you considering installing a "retro-fit" roller cam in your engine, be it a 302 or a 351... BE ADVISED... many cam manufacturers require the use of a "BRONZE DISTRIBUTOR GEAR" which in turn would require replacement of the gear frequently when used for everyday "street" use.

S O M E  cam manufacturers have already addressed this problem and are offering a retro-fit cam for these popular engines with an iron or steel gear that of course would NOT require frequent changing.

Check with your manufacturer or call their tech line before making a purchase of a retro-fit cam to insure you are not buying a cam which would eventually lead to a high maintenance situation.
