When I rebuilt my VE pump on my 4bt years ago there was one thing that has perplexed me on what it does for the pump or how it runs. Maybe it's one of those things I've over thought and I'm blowing it out of proportion. I had a spare pump lying around so I took a pic of what I'm talking about. I'm sure this is common with all VE pumps. This part has yellow paint (non-tamper) on it. There's a lock nut on the front of the pump that holds this shaft in place. Can this shaft be set or adjusted properly? So i screw it in and lock it in place with the nut? I realize it's for the flyweight to rotate on, but I'm curious as to if there's a proper way adjusting it. Again, maybe I'm over thinking this component. See pic. Thanks.
108 I think, doubt if there is much set up, guess it just screws in and then the lock nut secures it. The governor sleeve just slides on the shaft and works against a lever. That end of the shaft does not seat into anything.

Thanks guys, It looks like the general consensus is 2.5 to 2.6 turns out. The only reason I'm investigating it is because ever since day one on my expedition conversion I've had what feels like a defueling issue at around 20% throttle. I've ruled out everything else I can think of, my fool around with this gov shaft.
Need thought's for a 6bt P7100 build roughly 380+- HP level and need input about pros and cons of HX40 both gated and non-gated 16cm2 turbine housings.
I did find a new Holset Super 40 16cm2 4" V band non-gated using a cobra-head down the seller claims will be just right for my HP target that...
I just picked up 130hp, intercooled 4bt with a ppump and 180k original miles. It came out a wrecked fedex truck and sat for at least 5 years.
It’s going into a 76 F150, 4x4, short bed. Long story but I won’t have the truck until March, I’m not sure which transfer case is in it, but planning on...
Working on a 6329D Deere (6 cylinder, 329 Cubic inches, non turbo). It is currently 95 HP and runs well, but I would like to get it up to 125 HP to 150 HP. A turbo from Deere for a 6329T is supposedly a T04B32. What are the specs on this turbo? I know it is a T4 foot, but that's about it...
Hey has anyone ever ran one of these he300 turbos? hard to find info on them but it appears they have a 10cm exhaust housing and are similar to an hx35 in physical dimensions(same wastegate and bolt on flange) and similar to the hy35 in wheel sizes. I'm interested as I've tried the hy35 in my...
Hi everybody.
Had a question for the compound turbo Gurus here about compound vs single turbo performance. Had an oil seal drama on my atmospheric turbo on my compound Rodeo. I have temporarily removed the atmospheric turbo and just running the high pressure as a single. All exhaust pipework is...
