What is bigger the camshaft gear or the crankshaft gear?
The crankshaft gear is typically larger than the camshaft gear. This is because the crankshaft needs to convert the linear motion of the pistons into rotational motion, requiring a larger gear to effectively transfer power. In contrast, the camshaft gear is smaller as it primarily drives the camshaft, which operates the engine's valves. The size difference is essential for maintaining the correct timing and relationship between the crankshaft and camshaft.

They are similar in that both designs give longer service life compare to a belt driven camshaft and they do not need replacement within the expected life of the engine. They are different in that a chain driven camshaft is turned by a chain running off the crankshaft and a gear driven set up transmits the turning force from the crankshaft all the way up to the camshaft using gears alone. A chain drive set up may have some sort of tensioning device for the chain that may occasionally wear out
