Thanks to Allen's excellent reply to my recent questions regarding my
'59 235 project, I have begun to think about perhaps replacing my timing
gears. A couple of more questions have presented themselves.
1. Can the fiber cam gear be replaced without replacing the crank
gear?
2. What can be gained or lost by going to aluminum gear/gears such as
those sold by Patrick's?
3. Since the motor is going to come apart this far, . . . should I
consider some sort of "RV" or "Driver" cam, assuming such things exist? At
this point, I have no plans to alter the stock carbie or exhaust manifold.
I am looking for a sweet running truck motor, not a racer.
