I talked this over with my dad who is a mechanical engineer and his thoughts were if you keep your fluid in its heat range the bearing will give you longevity if your hydraulic wedge fails. You are having to use energy to turn the rollers but just the fluid takes less energy in his opinion. Though when fluid breaks down or can't keep its wedge the bearing is better. Just his opinion.
With that the 2004r was not designed to harness anywhere near the power our crowd puts through em. Our brf got several upgrades that the earlier units didn't have like the roller bearing under the planet instead of the washer.
The fun part is getting the pinions out and back in again.
Maybe others have quantified it better.
I think a 7 vane pump is fine too as long as you put in some hard rings.
