Im looking at getting the Nevo 175mm pulley. But have read a little about the oversize pullys spining the water pump to fast and it can case something called cavitation. (excuse my bad spelling)
Just wondering if there is any tricks people use with the oversize pully to counter act or help stop this cavitation?
Was also wondering if an aftermarket Intercooler would be a smart thing to do when getting the pulley put on? As the stock intercooler sits right ontop of the engine and gets red hot even tho I have a scoop for it.
Was not sure how much difference a better intercooler would make. Hope you guys can shed some light on it for me

Topmount = bad.
Move it to the front and air temps should cool down, therefore giving some more power and other benefits. The factory one is OK, but something bigger is better.
I haven't heard any reports of waterpump cavitation on ZEs with a big pulley. However if there is room you could try finding a bigger waterpump pulley to fit.
