The COMP Cams 420 bronze distributor gear is engineered for high-performance Chrysler small-block LA engines, providing reliable valve timing control and exceptional durability. This precision-manufactured gear features a .484" inside diameter and is specifically designed for Chrysler 273-360 cubic inch LA-series V8 engines and Donovan V8 applications.

Key Features:

• Bronze construction for superior wear resistance and compatibility with performance camshafts
• .484" inside diameter shaft fitment
• Direct replacement for Chrysler 273, 318, 340, and 360 LA-series small-block V8 engines
• Compatible with Donovan aluminum V8 blocks
• Designed to work with steel and billet steel camshaft gears
• Essential upgrade when running aftermarket performance camshafts with steel cores

Bronze distributor gears are required when using steel or billet camshafts to prevent accelerated wear and potential gear failure. The dissimilar metals (bronze gear against steel cam gear) create a proper wear pattern and ensure long-term reliability. This gear is a critical component for any performance build or engine rebuild using aftermarket camshafts on Chrysler LA-series engines.
