Question... can the higher ratio 349H gear set be installed in a lower ratio 349 single leaver reel?

Cool
I would rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6...

Yes, both gear sets are interchangeable.

This reel has the 349H gear set.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

I was trying to buy nos reels for the side plates and rings. I have tiburon frames and a good supply of parts.

You do have to be careful with some of these reels. I recently bought a 349 on ebay that was advertised to have a "perfect aluminum spool" and when I got it I found that it was a chrome spool that was painted black. I did get a fast response and refund from ebay.

Ebay doesnt tolerate stuff like that. The seller has to give you a accurate discription of the item.

I've seen listings describing the spool as "chromed brass" when it was actually the more desirable stainless steel. Works both ways!

I had another 349hc today that I was out bid on but he had to pay a good price for it. $152.00 is a good price for a 349. Well they didn't get it for nothing and they can't sell it for much more. With me around bidding the 349h might gain in value. No more 75 dollar reels that are NOS more like 150 dollars if they want one. That's what I am willing to pay.
