A relative of mine purchased the roller bearing cam plate setup from Scott a few weeks back. It is a very nice setup. The retaining plate is a nice piece and made out of thicker gauge steel than stock. The machining on the cam gear is top notch with radiused corners to eliminate a stress riser. Torrington bearings locate the cam in both directions. An alignment tool is included to locate the retainer plate, thus centering the bearing and race. I feel that Scott really did his homework on this setup. The setup my uncle purchased will be going on his BES built 455 as soon as time permits (too many customer projects). Tony Bischoff reviewed the setup and is going to start recommending them to his customers. I've seen several 30 year old stock retainer plates that are grooved and show significant wear. I am all for anything that improves longevity and reliability. I'll be buying one for my street/strip 455 when I get started. That's my 2 cents. -Doug
