I have one of their gears on my 8v engine as well.

If there were a lot of interest it might be worth sending mine off for "reproduction" but I doubt that we could make it very economical.

The stock gear does have some adjustability but I haven't taken the time to measure the range. I think the 928 guys say it might allow 3 degrees in either direction.
Thanks my Mech says the same thing, he said not to worry about it because the stock cam gear is adjustable, I believe he was just worried about getting the timing right for the motor within the stock gears tolerance for adjustment. He doesn't want to bend valves and have to start all over of course.
