Hi have a set of STR's 3-bolt adjustable cam gears that I'd like to install on my 1G with HKS 264/272 cams. Does anyone have experience with these specific cam gears? Have you had ANY problems with them such as slipping, fitment, balance, belt wear, durability, etc?
Newer cam gears have up to 6 bolts to prevent slipping, but HKS still has their 3-bolt design which I assume is working fine. While the STR gears have only 3 bolts, the bolts are 10mm in diameter at the threads which from some information on the internet suggest they're larger than others at only 6mm. This should allow for greater torque which would increase their clamping force and resistance to slipping.
If you have any practical experience with these gears, please post your opinions and experiences (good or bad) with the STR 3-bolt adjustable cam gears. Thanks for any and all replies.
