The 3 grooves are for ID purposes. I will try to post some photos of 1st,2nd and 3rd generation gears next week.Mezo wrote:
I notice the 3YF gears have relief cuts (grooves) pity we still don’t know what gears Dave & Richard are using?
Carry on.

I figured the grooves were to help oil from getting squished entirely out the sides and allowing some to be pushed to the next tooth through those grooves when the teeth are intermeshing . I think I said that right.

Re: Moorespeed 3rd to 5th Gears

But that sounds a plausible idea Jeff.
