Default Anyone got a set of buddy club cam gears??

Thinking about buying a set of these gears but havent heard much about their quality other than buddy club is selling out or something? I know they are 4 bolt gears, has anyone had any issues with the teeth wearing out? Also another random question do they come as a set with mismatched colors? one gold and one silver?

I have a set no problems yet. The gold one is for the intake and the silver for the exhaust.

thats not true. i just installed buddy club spec 3 cams/cam gears and they are both titanium color......ill take a picture of them right now and show you them installed because i still have the timing belt off and valve cover so you can see.......the timing marks are alittle confusing at first because they are alittle different due to them being adjustable.....

The gears them self are exactly the same size, buddy club sends them out one gold and one silver to help identify the exhaust cam and the intake cam, as if you couldn't allready. But I have seen a few vendors sell them as one color.

i ended up putting my stock cam gears on the spec 3's because the buddy club ones sucks...do not get them...there is no timing marks on it and the marks that are on it everytime you line them up the way they should be my pistons would hit the valves....does anybody have a diagram on how to properly do the timing with the cam gears so this doesnt happen??
