Owen, Don't know if I just got a bad set or if all the sets are like this. I found the NOS cam gear so I wanted to keep and use the crank gear from the set. That's why I haven't sent it back to Kanter. I've had this set for 6 months by now. They probably wouldn't take it back at this late date anyway.

I really wish we hadn't driven the manufacture of these parts to China. Just a story, A friend of mine replaced an original GM starter in a 73 350 that was in the car over 20 years with a new, not rebuilt, starter from China. It hardly lasted 6 months and is shot. Same thing with an electric window motor from China I bought for my 73 Charger. Yes I did grease everything before it went back together. The junk plastic gears failed. At least it wasn't poisonous.
