One thing I can say,Richmonds are noisy.
I've heard that Motive's are quieter than Richmond.
Hope this help,
Don

I have a set of Motive 4.10 gears that I will sell for $100+ shipping for 7.5" rear with less than 250 miles on them.

Axle/Gears: 10-bolt w/3.73s
i was planning on getting richmond 3.73s this spring, but instead i am getting the GM gears. i have heard a lot of people that say that the richmonds are really noisey.

i have a friend with a 97 SS that actually had his richmonds taken out and put GMs in because they drove him nuts there were so loud.

GTA91-I emailed to the address you posted and it got returned to me. I took the gears out because they were too low for the combination of engine, tranny, etc. I miscalculated when I ordered them. Should have bought 3.42 or 3.73. I just put the stockers back in. I got them from Fortes parts. No digital camera yet. my email rangelec@lcp2.net

i like richmonds and haven't had any problems with noise, but open headers may cover the gear whine.
