Well. if we were actually talking about timing gears as the title line 
says...I built one several years ago for the GT6 based upon a small block Ford 
three 
gear kit.  Worked fine and is presently running up in the NorthEast 
somewhere.  Didn't seem to contribute a thing and I didn't see it was worth the 
effort 
to set it up.
I've been drawing and noodling on a belt drive for several years but it too 
is way on the backburner.  Not enough gain for the effort, IMHO.  Steve

Actually, Jim was asking about the frictional losses of helical  
timing gears--not something you worry about on a stock TR motor.
