They are getting there. There was a thread recently showing and actual picture of them and stating they should be in production by year end. 3.90 and 4.10s.

I think he meant the full 9 inch ring gear that the Z06 currently has so it is just a pull out the old ring and pinion and put in a new one (not a rear swap using a 8.25 inch gear C6 gear).

NOT Richmond Gear, that point was made clear multiple times, and they will be available towards the end of this year.
It's most likely Motive out of Italy, same company that produces the aftermarket gear sets for other Corvette applications.

Richmond is in the mix as well...C6Z/ZR1 and C7/C7Z gear sets are in the works. I'll see if I can get a status update from them.

Well yes, as Richmond inquiries go to Bob Linville at Midwest...but the Richmond name still exists, and unless I misunderstood him, they were looking to release under the Richmond banner.

The entire line is under Motive now. Motive bought Richmond so they could easily bring the name if they chose to do that. Even if they did, Richmond Gear is not the same RG in Liberty SC that it was before.
