[NIsaacs]

Sounds good, but shy on the torque rating, 500/500. ZF built.

$3700 and it still has the huge ratio difference between 2nd and 3rd. What are G56s selling for now?

Even with that I like that is a true 1:1 replacement where absolutely everything around the transmission bolts right back in place.

With a 500/500 rating, it appears to be geared for gassers. I do like the simplicity of ball bearings v/s tapered. You can rebuild one, almost with your eyes shut.

I've read the full article and they say it proved good even with higher torque and commercial use.
But also say to use it with common sense.

The NV5000, like the NV4500, uses a heavy-duty ball bearing on the input shaft. This bearing handles axial and radial loads from the engine, so ensuring its quality and proper preload is vital for longevity.
