I am going to use the truck as an everyday driver/lite hauling. I was wondering if it anyone has put either one behind a 350, i know the nv3500 is stronger, but is it as easy to put in as a t5? | | | | | Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 1,456 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 1,456 | The NVG3500 (a.k.a.
