2006 6.0

Putting a 12 valve in my 06 super duty. What does everyone do on the fuel pump, run the electric one from the 6.0 or use the stock mechanical pump on the 12 valve. Mild motor making maybe 350 horse to maybe 400.

I would personally run the mechanical one on the 12v. They are awesome in my opinion.

That's what I'm going to do after reading about the pumps on the 6.0's being not real dependable.

The 12v piston lift pumps are very reliable for your power goals.

I'm running the 12v lift pump but had to increase the line size from the tank to the lift pump.
Stock 6.0 line is like 5/16 ID and to small to properly supply the lift pump, fuel pressure would drop as low a 5 psi on a hard pull.
