After buying a new one for the first race engine, I used what looked to be a 
good used one for my new engine.

I suspect the material properties are not as good on the current production 
gears, as well.

Not 
 only are the holes 'straight up', but the teeth are not as wide, making me 
 think the chain will ride in a different place (like looser).
 
 Most vehicles did not come with the ability to dial in cam timing, so I'm 
 sure it's not perceived as being necessary.
