I've seen advertisements for different gears in the back of Panorama magazine, so there are companies doing it. Your speedometer and odometer will be inaccurate, though, unless you have your ECU reflashed to correct the speedometer multiplier in the ECU. (Been there, done that with three different Camaros.)

You also will need to find a VERY experienced gear installer to set the pinion depth correctly, or you will get a horrible gear howl at highway speeds. (Again, been there, done that.)
