I've done all the gears in my Proflite and it has noticeably improved rotation when building it. I've done a few other sets for some Comp racers. I'm sold on REM finishes for durability.

Here is an ad that gives HP numbers if that is what your looking for.

I have wondered about using this process: http://www.microblueracing.com/smoot...solutions.html
I would like to hear from someone that has used it on rear gears.
Hope this helps you Dan
Adger Smith;
Thank you for referring both of these companies.
Especially like the MicroBlue coating for additional friction reduction.
Having a PLUS SIZE Car can use every bit of parasitic drag reduction possible.

I know NASCAR and Sport Cars use a lot of these products and services.
NO longer see the dramatic blowing of engines as you did in the 60's and 70's.
Which I think kicked in in the 80's. (thank you aero industry).

If anyone has a recommendation please forward the information and experience.
