I spoke to CompCams two weeks ago and the tech told me that all their cores are compatible with oem distributor gears; that they don't require steel or bronze 
gears. But I wouldn't go on that info alone.  Call them back with your grind/cam number and ask what the core material is. If it's less than 8620 steel you can use 
a Mallory steel allow distributor gear.
