Pretty sure the big names like HKS, Tomei and JUN... but good luck finding any. You best bet is to wait for a used set to pop up on ebay.

Does CA respond well with cam gear tuning? How much power gains can be seen? or is it just a matter of switching the power curve?

I've only heard of cam gears doing something for people with a shaved head and/or different cams. They are not a performance modification in their own right.

its also a good possiblity that RB cam gears will fit, they have the same amount of teeth, but i am unsure if they are the same size gear diameter wise. if they are they should work.

RB cam gears do not work the sit to close to the head..

RB gears can be machined to fit, they are inch width and CA is 3/4 inch, just take off what you need so they are the same as your stock ca ones

I am doubtful when it comes to the value of adjustable cam gears. unless of course the head has been shaved in which they are easier to correct the valve timing with than remachining the stockers. I just get a sick feeling about those goobers coming loose at full anger and letting my pistons and valves become aquainted

Don''t tell me you guys just drop in new cams without properally installing them...

Adjustable cam gears are a neccessity to dial in cams - thus properally install them.

they aren't necessary but they can help you get a couple extra HP.
