A major difference between lobe and gear pumps is that the rotors are designed to remain in close contact throughout rotation. By close contact, I mean that the lobes rotate about one another at extremely close tolerances. Also, unlike the gear pump, the rotors of the lobe pump do not mesh

What the difference between a driving gear and a driven gear?

The "driving" or drive gear is the source of power or rotation. The driven gear is turned or moved by the drive gear. Example: The pulley on a motor is the drive pulley and a pulley on a pump is the driven pulley. Example: The pinion gear in a differential is the drive gear and the ring is the driven gear.

What is the difference between trochoid oil pump and gear oil pump?

a gear pump is just that. it has a pair of gears in mesh with each other. a shaft drives one of the gears turning the other gear while oil is captured in the teeth outside the gears and carried from one side of the pump to the other. a trochoid is similar in operation but uses an inner and outer ring to do the same thing. usually they are precision ground and orbit about each other. very similar to the internal workings of a wankel engine.

Is there a difference between a carbuator camshaft for a Chevy 350 and a throtlebody camshaft for a Chevy 350?

not really, the difference in cams is more like a van versus a camaro. if you just want it to run, any cam will do, but if you want it to haul a$$, gotta go aftermarket... crane cams is good. there is a difference between them, though they interchange, if you put a cam from a "k" code 350 5.7 in an old carbureted 350 pre 1987 , the mechanical fuel pump will not function hence there is no fuel pump lobe on those cams. and you will have to use a electric fuel pump.
