From what I hear they can run over 5K. From what I have read about them is in all pretty good.

A few years back there was one guy who posted problems with the gears. They were not installed by a PPG recomended shop. At the time there were three shops that installed them.

I know inline pro has bought gear sets from them in the past. You may want to ask Ya about them.

What kind of power are you putting down to have already went through 3 trannies?

Last year, Bullhead gears quoted me $5700 for the PPG synchro gearset. I'll be going this route soon I hope.

I am still intereseted to hear if the PAR set is any good. When I originally looked at the PPG they did not have a Synchromesh set just dogbox and they wanted $10,000. I was able to find the PAR for around $4,500 and they had a syncro set.

its weak whp im making, just 420whp but i tend to street race every weekend and take it to the track once or twice a month. but i been through 3 trannies within 2years of having my turbo kit....my main goal was to do a return fuel system from full blown but my tech and tuner talked me out of it cause ill be wasting money on the long run, so that's why im planning on doing gears first before my fuel system...cause if i do the other first ill broke more tranny which ill be wasting money!!!

There is a guy in MD who had them, just sold his car to another member here in MD. I think they worked well with his inline pro stage one set up.

Yep, this has been mentioned before but I'm not too sure it's true. When I spoke to Chris from Bullhead gears, he never mentioned this when I was looking to get them. A group buy may drop the price some though and should be looked into if it will. If they dont drop the price for a group buy, thats BS.
