Hi,
I am installing this comp cam into a 360 magnum. I wanted to know if I need to change my oil pump drive gear for the roller cam? I was told I may need to run a bronze oil pump drive gear as its a solid roller cam.
thanks

Lists this as a Steel Billet, so Yes.

Thanks coronet, Looks like I need to get one.
Does anyone know if the magnums have a hardened gear already or would they be the same as the earlier LA ones
The gear in it now is the factory magnum one as far as I know. I have seen some pics of LA engine ones and they seem to have a pin you can remove to change the gear on the shaft. My magnum one doesn't have that pin. It looks to be all one piece. Not shiny though like bronze.
cheers

Some gears are pressed on and not pinned. I would get a new pinned, hardened intermediate shaft with the gear and install yourself, the preassembled ones look pricey.
