The only reason I could see not using a billet one is it could be harder than the oil pump drive and thus kill the oil pump drive very fast, IE running a roller cam on a stock flat tappet cam distributor gear, ala SBC, so if that was the case, we'd have to have a new oil pump gear made too.
Damn, too true,

I think these int. shafts are a ways off. Think of how hard it is to find 3.50FD sets for a hybrid trans right now. None of us want to pay for that to be made yet and there is probably a much greater demand there. I think we are about 2 years off from the 525 ring gears being reasonable for guys to pay for, but by that time how many will be left?
I didn't reralize 3.50 FD's were that hard to find.

I'm thinking external belt driven oil pump and distributor like the big kids
If anybody can do it......Warren's the one
A couple people asked me how well my engine idled with the new cam, so I shot a short video. This is at about 850 rpm.............
You can hear the noise of the solid lash adjusters when the camera is close to the valve cover. the lash is set at .014int. and .016ex.
