Crow Cams Holden V8 Distributor Gear
Holden V8 Distributor Gear — DG8
The DG8 is Crow’s Holden V8 distributor drive gear, listed for its Holden camshafts including roller profiles.
Crow requires a check of distributor-shaft outside diameter before purchase. Confirm the complete drive arrangement; the oil-pump gear is the separate DG4 component.
Applications and compatibility
This part is listed for the following engine and vehicle applications where the Crow camshaft or valvetrain package calls for this exact part number:
- Holden Commodore VN–VR — 5.0L EFI V8
- Holden Commodore VS — 5.0L EFI V8
- Holden Torana LH–UC — V8 applications
Compatibility is still determined by the complete cylinder-head and camshaft combination; vehicle model alone is not a substitute for checking the required spring, retainer, lock, lifter and rocker setup.
Installation checks
Confirm distributor-shaft diameter and compatibility with the camshaft and oil-pump drive before ordering. Check gear mesh/contact pattern and distributor end-float during assembly.
