Gleason gears

Are Gleason gears an acceptable substitute for Richmond Pro gears? I've seen a number of "used" gear sets for sale lately from Nascar teams.I can't help but think the heat treat is different.Has anybody here used a Nascar gear with success?

Gleason gears are some of the best, used by NASCAR and NHRA Pro Stocks and Comp racers.

So the metallurgy and heat treat are the same for all Gleason gears?
