[Fot] Straight cut timing gear set

[Bill Babcock]

The most efficient timing drive is chain in an oil bath--least  
friction. Actually Gilmer belts are even more efficient but they're a  
pain--they have a pretty short life cycle. In my Ferrari they need to  
be changed every 15K miles. By the time you maket straight gears cut  
you could pay for two gilmer drives though. Of course they have to  
run dry, so you'll need a little re-engineering of the timing chest.
