solid roller swap

Hughes also sells the specially treated steel gear, which is supposed to be a "one-&-done" part. The bronze gears do wear out rather quickly.
I ran a bronze gear in one of my hemi`s , back in the day. it did not wear much at all for some reason. Hughs does have a gear that will work on "any" cam. I have one in my 505 w/ a solid compcams roller.
