12 bolt rebuild ?s with pics

[86ccsb]

Hello all. New to the site, lots of good info. Im currently building a 12 bolt for my 86 and wanted some opinions on what everyone thought my gear pattern looked like. The first pic is at .027 pinion shim and .006 backlash. The second is .030 and .006 bl. Thanks for your input!

1st one looks too deep in the root. The wipe you see, look deeper for the crease that doesn't wipe, that's the actual mesh depth. You can see the line in the yellow paint. You can also see the paint in the root was slightly lifted from running deep. If it was mine I would have been happy with the 2nd pattern.
