@67RS427 , hey Matt as you know I started my project today, did get very far, but we noticed that I am missing a cam gear so my question is if the stock one will fit on BTR cam? or don't mess with it and just order a new 3 bolt cam gear?

Is your original cam a 1 bolt or 3 bolt? I had to use a new one and would suggest you do the same depending on miles. They do wear over time and easier to do now than later. I'm running a double roller but it's not necessary

Didn't take the cover off yet, so not sure but I think guys at BTR said stock won't fit. I think they mess up the order

Didn't look at the paperwork but whole vvt delete kit is on back order. Another set back, not a good start.

Common parts, get from Summit or Jegs. You can make your own kit too, part numbers are nothing special

It was ordered and paid just not shipped the rep didn't know about this issue, shipping department never told him about parts being on backorder. Gotta tell you excellent customer service at BTR answered my email immediately gave me next day air delivery, dealer pricing and additional 5% off along with some other apparel goodies. Most likely shipping will cost more than parts lol.
