HE351VE on OM617 - 300SD81 - 11-20-2012
What is the consensus on using a HE351VE on the 617? It seems the 2256V I have is now considered to be too small.
I've read on here that it was too big, but there seems to be several people using the HX40 on the 617, and the 351 is considered to be the same size...

I plan to be using a 10mm MW pump on the engine after I finish rebuilding it.

Too big is just a matter of when it spools up and whether you're ok with that. I'm guessing it'd be around 3000 rpm with the vanes functioning properly.

Is the 351 that much bigger than the hx40? It seems like the hx40 spools pretty well in the videos.

The VE should spool better as it is variable geometry.

Read my build thread to check sizing I was considering a HE351VE...might actually work with a superpump
