The gears you have are "Circle Ess" gears that have 16 teeth. The #2 gear is a 9 pitch gear and the #3 gear is a 10 pitch gear. Generally, Jones Speedometer Co. and Stewart Speedometer Co. used 9 pitch gears, while Warner used 10 pitch gears. These gears were used with swivel joints or direct drives. These gears were not used on a Model T Ford. I hope this helps. Russ Furstnow
