Intermediate Shaft Wear

Use a melonized gear when it called for a bronze. Bronze are intended to wear.. setup is key or they'll wear prematurely.
I can't get over the price of the damn things!
Why are there no billet gears available by the cam manufacturers, probably still cost a lot.
I have a 1990 roller block what did dodge use them? If they didn't use a billet camshaft then why are the manufacturers using billet now.
I had a truck with over 250000 miles no engine issues with that.

I'm ranting sorry.
$240 for a small gear on the end of a shaft. :mad:
