Hi does anyone on the forum offer any services for shot peening and cryo'ing? I've found a place but they will only do it for a bare gearset. I don't know anything about taking apart a gearbox. Rough cost would be appriciated?

The gears need to be new to work. Otherwise fairly pointless

Thats what we've been told by the company doing our stuff - Its not as effective on old parts.

I know Ash paid a fair bit of cash and got his done properly for his race car and it still just blew to pieces, only difference it made was making him poorer.

Yeah it was fine with 800lbft going through it at 1.15bar, turning it up to 1.6bar did the damage Smile
