Bronze dist. Gear

Getting the final little stuff ordered for assembly. Currently have a Mopar Perf. Bronze drive in my motor in car. I really wanted to keep that motor assembled and ready to run. Was shocked at the price of a new bronze drive.

I have several good steel ones and was wondering if anyone has used the pin on bronze gear offered by Crane, Crower, etc. 80 bucks sounds a lot better than 200.

Not using a HV pump.

Geez everything I have in this new bullet is top end stuff and feel like I'm "cheaping out" here but this little stuff is killing me!
Yes I've used just the gear, removed pin on intermediate shaft, pressed bronze gear on and reset pin, however..I don't use bronze gears anymore , I use the coated steel gear from crane with billet cams and the regular gear on the cast iron hyd roller cams I do here in there. I would skip the bronze and use the coated steel gear from crane if its a new billet cam...because no matter how long the bronze lasts...it still wears and ends up in the Oil.
