Ok, I guess Ill spend the extra $50 and get the Ford Racing ones then.

Anyidea where the cheapest ones are? I know Ive seen them for under $150 somewhere. They are $180 on mustangtuning.com

FYI: Motive is now making some of the gears for FRPP.

If there is an "M" at the end of the FRPP part#, it's made by Motive.

You don't need to measure pinion depth when you install FMS gears. Motives, you do, which means you need a pinion depth gauge, which means more money. There goes any savings right there.

No gears will whine if set up correctly.

With that said, I run ford motorsport 4.30's.
