Hello all,
Now moving forward with the project and decided to drop the 8:32 idea to go for new ratios

I studied more in details the various tables provided and was wondering if it would be technically feasible to re-use some of the original pinions placed on another position on the shaft to reduce the number of new pinions to build?

The following combination is resulting in a relatively short 5th (147mph / 235kph) but if it allows to save half of the price….it is still a decent top speed for most of the tracks and remain usable on roads I believe...
the yellow cells are new gears and green+ orange are "swapped"
Respective top speed indicated as well....

GTgears

Unfortunately it's not quite that simple. All gear pairs are matched sets. When you change the tooth count of a mating gear you are changing the size of the teeth.

The only complete sets that can be moved around with that constraint are 3rd and 4th. 5th stands alone, as does 2nd.

Thanks for the answer!
Damn it! that would have been a nice saving!

Need to find if it is possible to source in France or if need to order to U.S ( + choose the ratios...)
