It's solid (the black dot you see is for the set screw that holds it to the shaft). It's a cool part though. I got one (along with a Thorp) and the solid gear is heavy...makes a heavy srb that much heavier.

It reminds me though....what is the re-re's gear box gonna hold? Any halfway modern motor will cook it if they still have the plastic idler and final gears. More speculation for that "Exciting News" thread i guess.
