Posted by Avenger, Jun-17-01 09:36 AM
Anyone out there have these? They are selling on groupbuycenter for $130 for a PAIR!!! Yes a PAIR! Thank you Skrilla for pointing it out. Here's the link.

I can't find a manufacturers site out there though. Anyone ever heard of these?

....and I might add it's a very good deal so I think everyone should jump on it. Since the company is a no name in the engine dept. their stuff is inexpensive, so I would like to add I am using them and they are great! They are just as adjustable as my AEM gears with with 10 points of movement (+/-5)at 2* each. They are also 5 bolt for strength and durability, at least check them out, cam gear design isn't rocket science (too bad Skunk2 doesn't make their 6 bolt 20* gears for us - not like we could use all that:))

3614, AEM weight...

...I went to Pavilions down the steet from me and got on the meat scale(yes in their meat dept.). The exact weight of the AEM's are 1.02 pounds.

BTW I never mentioned this - and VERY important I might add. The AEM gears are 3 bolts!! The OBX are FIVE bolts(yes that means the OBX are better for anyone who doesn't know:)).

Anyway when I get a chance I'll pull one of my OBX gears and weight it - so stay tuned!
