    I done some searching but havn't found any recent info.
    I'm curious about the current diff gears to suit the V8 Ford Banjo from Speedway & MACs, where are they made & are they any good?
    Last info I found was 2010 & the speedway gears were Italian...
    Thanks

    Glenn, talk to Corey as he bought a set of 3.54's in for the 32 Tudor (the 3.23's were not available at the time)
    I don't know any details so ask him.

    i think they are still Italian, and i think thats the only one being produced for a long time now. no complaints on quality that i have heard, they seem to work

    Great to hear, @swifty I'll get hold of Cory for sure!
    My boss is building an English based special & was chassing a crown wheel & pinion in the low 3's.
    They were contemplating having a set cut. I had hear a fair bit of bad press so wasn't sure if that was current or not...

    I assume that Sppedway & MAC's both have the same supplier?

    Thanks @mkubacak - Same supplier? That's the ratio. 3:00:1 would be better, but I don't think they would get that.
    They will be fitting it into their own housing

    as much as i admire hotrod works products, i doubt they are cutting new ring and pinion's in house. but...never hurts to ask
