LT1-Bronze Cam Gear life- How long is typical?

re
buddy has been running the comp polymer gear ($110) for about 4 years on his daily driver. The brass left him w/o oil pressure,he shut it right off, disivered the damage and tried the polymer. He had to mahine a small bushing back then but they only showed one size back then. Do a search this has been covered before

I've done the search and I've found the crane steel gear meantioned here. But, our shaft uses a particular size, .427 I believe. I'm not seeing the steel gear in that size advertised. Anyone have a part number or did you just have one machined/bushed?

I can't tell if you're purposefully being oblique here. If you know what the right gear is, could you state what the right gear vendor/part number would be? As far as the right/wrong gear I have, it's the one the cam designer(Bret Bauer) told me to use.
Update: I've taken out the HV pump, installed a new one comensurate with a stock 96 Z28 engine. Also ordered a composite gear that my machinist will bore/bush to the proper .427 shaft size.
