you might have to adjust the distributor to minimize the affects of the half tooth. what is your full motor

I say you've come this far, drop $100 on the cam gear and do it right the first time. Or I think there's a D series OEM cam gear that you can use instead to get that 1/2 tooth back. :thumb:

it's a d15 block with a z6 head, I am trying to rake as many monies as i can but im taking way too many classes at school and I can barley get by. what do you guys think ?

Teal: I am going to do research and see if there is a stock cam gear I can use.

Thanks in advance again guys.
