We present first results from our Very Large Telescope large program to study the dynamical evolution of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIRGs), which are the products of mergers of gas-rich galaxies. The full data set consists of high resolution, long-slit, H- and K-band spectra of 38 ULIRGs and 12 QSOs (between 0.0423:1 typically do not force enough gas into the center to generate ULIRG luminosities.
