Nascar 9" gears

[Mark Ugrich]

I have a set of 6.20 gears I installed recently. As far as I know most NASCAR gears are made by Gleason and new are in the $2000.00 range.Gleason only makes gears in 9310, which is the same as a pro gear.
There were no pinion depth markings or numbers to go by, so it took a little work to get them right.I got the depth close, then used the comet tail on the pinion to dial in the pattern.

I bought a center section that had them in it. Odd gear set 4:50 ratio. Ran them for years in a bracket car only changed because I wanted a different ratio.

Gleason figured out how to make 9310 gears live in NASCAR. They grind the gears as I understand it. GM bought the first 2 years of production so their teams had a exclusive for those 2 years.
