tpi to carb conversion . What distributor gear do I need ?

I'm putting a tpi motor in a monte and I am converting it to a carb setup with an hei distributor . I know the tpi has a roller cam . Do I need a special gear for it ? Sorry if it's a dumb question . I usually work on fords , and when you convert to a carb with a roller cam you need a bronze dizzy gear . Is it the same on a chevy ? Thanks for the help people :hail:

The factory roller cam has an iron gear so that you do not have to use a bronze distributor gear.
