928 intl doesn't have any good used timing gears. Anyone have a pair they're willing to part with? Trying to save some cash and mine are pretty shiny.

I just installed Roger's new cam gears and they are very nice...

ROG100

$295 each and will outlast any used gear 10 fold

I've got an email out to you Roger and the timing gears are on there. Just wanted to see if someone had any good used ones i could get cheaper.

Dude, for the time you (and/or your mechanic) are have into this whole job. wouldn't you rather have a good new gear in there?

Post a pic. Mine had some shine on them too, but I reused them. If you are inclined to check once in a while you might be able to reuse the ones you have.

I think Greg Brown had some used ones

I can see the merits of new ones, and i'm not ruling them out. The way i figured it was that if my gears were good I would have kept using them anyways, if I manage to get a good used set, i can use the money i'm saving toward something else.

It seems every time i remove something, something else behind it needs attention (i.e. pretty much have taken everything apart for tb/wp service and oil filler neck is leaking which i hadn't noticed before so now i'm redoing that and the waterbridge).

In the next service or 2 (maybe optimistic?) I could buy new ones then, since good used ones are bound to run out.

I'm also switching to the pktensioner and i'm curious as to the wear differences from the stock system. I've included a pic of my gears after 94K with the stock system. I've got every service record back to 1k service so these should be original.
