Hello,
I am looking for a high performance ring and pinion set, with a 0 degree pinion offset. Making a custom differential. Anybody know of a manufacter that has this type on the shelf? Tried different companies with no luck.
Thanks in advance.

Do you mean that you want the pinion centerline to intersect the ring gear center?
 
1. Are you looking for a spiral bevel gearset (pinion on centerline of ring gear) or an axle with zero lateral offset?

2. If zero lateral offset, keep in mind that the way to achieve that is to move the pig over in the chassis to set the pinion shaft in the center; the downside of this is that the 'bulk distribution' of the pig is not evenly distributed. Be sure that the chassis can accommodate rolling it off center.
