[QUOTE="Catmonkey, post: 16550549, member: 124025"] Since those are the only billet sprockets available in the whole chain drive system, I don't have a lot of confidence in the stock powdered metal pieces. They are also a much smaller diameter than the primary, so it will have fewer teeth contacting the chain than the primary, which has pretty good wrap with the chain tensioners. If someone made a billet primary, I'd recommend that too. To my knowledge these never materialized for the GT500. I had my primary sprockets, REM polished, cryo treated and coated by Micro Blue's low friction process. Actually I had that process done to all the chains, the secondary sprockets, and the crank gear. The beauty of going return style is you can run either gas or e85 with a tune and pulley swap, as long as the injectors are up to the task. We just don't have it down here, so you'd go through the same amount of trouble for race gas. [/QUOTE]
