NV4500 vs Getrag, pump timing and any other help...
I'm new to the 12valve, but I want to make sure I get this stuff right as I am parting out my other truck. I am going to inter-cool it, add a bigger turbo, mess with the pump (gov spring, screws, star-wheel, etc), upgrade the brakes, get rid of the bench seat and a ton of other stuff.
I want your thoughts on the transmissions. I just rebuilt my NV4500 and hate to get rid of it, but space is an issue at this point. I have read the Getrag is a weak link. Should I take the time to do the swap and how hard is it?n
I keep reading to turn the pump to advance timing, but I don't want to screw anything up in doing so. Is this a good guide (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U997AFBINk)? I don't want to bend any lines. Using a ratchet strap seems excessive.
Thanks in advance for your help!
