Default HL standard metal gear boxes tiger.

Does anyone know if the tooth count is the same for both the metal and nylon gears in the gear boxes?
I know guys where using the plastic gears in the metal gear boxes to make a 3:1 gear box, wondering if I should buy another set of HL metal gear boxes and just go that route?

if you put lubricant on it.. my 1st std HL tiger gearbox is pretty noisy when i got it.. i used all purpose grease and the sounded like a steel gearbox after 24 hours...till now.. for me my plastic gearox is pretty noise..
