![]() There seems to be several suppliers / manufacturers of these at present, but I will say, you get what you pay for, while true of most parts, this is more acute with gear sets. In the Mini Drivetrain, there are several sets or groups of gears -Įach of these sets are available as in straight cut types, and fitting one group, doesn't mean that it's necessary to change other, ie, you can for example just fit straight cut transfer gears if you like. This is why on a Race Car, they run closer ratios. In a Road going engine, these two points in the Rev Band are much wider apart than is the case on a Race going engine. Same would apply to 1st gear, but it is usually a little lower than this ideal. In an ideal world, the difference between each ratio would be selected such that - for example - as the engine reaches Peak HP in 2nd, then shifting in to 3rd, would put you right on Peak Torque in the Engine's Power Band, same for 3rd to 4th. Usually, before looking at alternate gears ratios, you need to see what gearing your engine would need or what best suits it.
