Question for the Gurus....
So I get my replacement crank back from my other machine shop (replacement REPLACEMENT crank). MUCH better than the other crank my FORMER machine shop reworked.
The current crank has a much less worn gear on it that cleaned up nicely. I was going to reuse the original timing gears together as the weren't worn that bad. I figure at 61 years old they'd probably outlive me. I've always heard that you want to replace gears together.
Question... Would you reuse the gear that came with the crank I bought that has less wear? Would that hurt anything to put it with the reusable cam timing gear? Thoughts appreciated.
TIA.
