9" gear setup. Is this an acceptable pattern?

These are used 4.11 gears with low miles (like 200 or less miles) on them. They ran quiet in another centersection.

I have set them up and to the best I can, but if the pattern is iffy let me know and I'll keep working on it.

Right now I am running a .011" shim set and .008" backlash.

Thanks for any advice, I want these gears to run quiet.

Well I fukked with it again. Ended up with what might be better?

Looks good to me, run it till ya rip the teeth off!

The drive pattern in the second pic (after you fukked with it again) looks much better, it has a stronger contact & looks much less like a "ghost" imprint. If it was a drag only car you might want to move the drive pattern down a little closer to the toe. If it was a street only car you could move the drive pattern up a little farther towards center. But for a street/strip car that current drive pattern looks like a damn good compromise.

Thanks a lot, guys!
