I need a faster retrieve for my 9/0

[Alto Mare]

So, do we need to tell Scott at pennparts that he is wrong, the sight says the gears are the same.

Ron

Black Pearl needed the gears from the 9/0, I didn't have any, so I decided to take my only 9/0 apart. While I was at it, I also decided  to check if the 13-114 pinion would work with the main gear, instead of the 13-115.
The reel did just fine, so Scott has it right the 13-114 will work on the 9/0.
I took some measurements between the two and didn't notice any difference.
Sal

Alan, I will ship the gears to you in the morning.

Sal,
So, my new 114H gear set will work on 115L, there will be no reason to make a new set for 115L.

That's what got me confused earlier, I was thinking 13-114H.
No, the 114H gear set will not work in the 115L.
We are talking about the 13-114 not 13-114H. The 13-114H is smaller in diameter than the 13-114.
We still need the pinion for the 115L.
I will send you the set tomorrow.

What!?
You only have one 9/0 Sal? I find this hard to believe. I hope its the one with the Accurate Frame.

[Alto Mare]

 
yes, I only have one and it is the one with the Accurate frame.
Don't ask me how many 114H's I have .

[Shark Hunter]

If its more than 5, you got me beat. Thats how many 9's I have.
So, did you guys solve Mr Powells problem or not?
It sure seemed like a lot of high-tech talk for this Hillbilly.

[Ron Jones]

So, so we can be clear:

The 114H and the 9/0 use the same main gear and the 114 and the 9/0 share the same pinion. So, Alan's gears won't work in the 9/0 but all Alan should need to do is make a new pinion for the 9/0 and use his high speed 114H main. Clear as mud?

[Shark Hunter]

Thanks noyb. I understand that!

[Ron Jones]

I'm glad you understood it, I was asking if I was rite!

May I ask what is the spool diameter of the Okuma 553LS? the 9/0 is 4 inches.

I don't have a CLR-553LS handy to provide you with the spool diameter or the handle length, but from the Okuma website, the 553's gear ratio is 6.2:1 and the retrieve is 53" per handle turn. This means the spool diameter would be equal to:

Spool Diameter = square root of ((4 x retrieve rate) / (3.14 x gear ratio))
Spool Diameter = square root of ((4 x 53") / (3.14 x 6.2))
Spool Diameter = square root of (212 / 19.468)
Spool Diameter = square root of 10.8897
Spool Diameter = 3.3"

[Jimmer]

Just measured one - 2.67"dia.

[Alto Mare]

Thanks for checking Jimmer.

Hmm, I'm pretty sure my math is right, I wonder if the 53" retrieve posted on the website is a misprint? It does seem like a lot of line for a reel with just 2.67" spool diameter.
