Default Straight cut cam gears??

I have a set of direct drive straight cut cam gears on my old chevy and it sounds good. (you know, they whine like a supercharger and are more reliable than a t chain.) Its a poor mans supercharger, I have been searching online and I cant seem to find out if anyone makes em for our dodge trucks. Or has anyone ever heard of putting them on dodges?
Thanks

dangit. I was really wanting some. I know a 4 wheel drive shop around here that has a CAD prgram and a cnc machine. think it would be a bad idea to see if they could make some? Might cook my engine but im going with a 408 before long

In a street engine, there is no need, you are just wasting your time and money.

Stick in a JP Performance Double Roller and be happy.
