NV4500 isn't that the Diesel trans?? for the 5.9/6.7 cummin's?? or the 6.2/6.5/6.6 GM ?

the speedo not that big of deal they offer both style's for the 60-66 in jeg's.
it's a single speed rear end 5.13:1, with 8R19.5's...68mph@3000rpm or less is the goal.
currebtly i'm at 62mph@3,000rpm not bad till you figure the engine comes apart around 3750-4000 rpm.


Adapting that tran's the 351D-V6 is going to be an extreme treat i'm sure. . . but as a wise man once said if you got a torch, a welder and a Drill you can make anything work. . .

so the NV4500 is the tran's i need.
now all i need is to get more grunt out of my engine 175-225hp 380-430tq,i got around to start with like 170hp and 280ish tq, 7.5:1 comp. plenty of room to improve... what about bumping ti to like 8:1 or 8.5:1 should get me about 340ish TQ, idealy i would like it to have 9.8:1 - 10.2:1. if i could get a torque rating of like 415TQ@2250RPM i would be happy. or somthing like 388TQ@1750RPM. . . .maybe the old dynosour just ain't worth time. . . i should be just be happ it's doggy and slow i got less than $2,000 into it and i have gotten almost10 trouble free year's from it tho $115 oil change's suck. . . I'm young yet i'll get over it. :hammering:
