94 12v looking for 700hp?

Get the 5k's, I street drive with them everyday, and they are just fine. My 5k's are from Scheids, and I believe that is where Garrett from PDP gets them to sell.

I assume that is just to be benched for a base line? If that is actaully getting into a pump and upgrading I might send mine out sooner than later.

It is to turn the barrels and balance the pump. Any more work done will raise the cost however.
 
So whats all involved in benching a pump, im really curious? and who would be a good person/shop to send it to? awhile back i talked to ryan at RKL diesel about benching my 160 but havent heard back in awhile.

send your pump to seth at DPE as mentioned before, they are very resonable, and do good work.
 
Hey now... We should be nice to that guy. He obviously has it all figured out with the big bad afe filter and ATS intake... But he may have forgotten the trans himself.

Id be scared to race him...LOL:lolly::bang:kick:

And another great job digging up a dead thread from months ago... *bdh*

In the testing I've done, power quickly drops off on 160 pump trucks when fuel pressure drops. None of the electric fuel lift pump setups maintain full pressure when 700 HP worth of fuel is drained from the P-pump so you need to start at 50 psi so it can drop to 40 psi without having a major impact on fueling. I picked up 83 HP in my Junker Drag Truck from increased fuel pressure so trust me, you will need good lift pump pressure to reach 700 HP on a 160 pump.

I have read others' claims that the 215 and 180 pump don't need as much fuel pressure to maintain full fueling. I personally haven't tested power decrease on 180 and 215 pumps with low fuel pressure so I can't comment one way or the other.

IIRC doesn't the shape of a 160 pumps cam (D-shaped) inhibit the fill time that the pump has to fill the chambers for injection, so a higher pressure would want to fill the chambers quicker in that shorter "window of oppurtunity" so to speak. the 180 and 215 pumps cams allow for a longer fill time so the high pressure is not needed as much...? just my theory.

as of now nothing, had the money to spend on it but some unfortunate stuff happened...house & truck got broke into so i thought it would be a good idea to help my family out by replacing what has been stolen and broke...just got a better job so hopefully soon things will pick up..sorry for dragging this on, kinda embarassing

It happens. Trucks aren't the most important things on earth:(
 
is it possible to calibrate the pump with out taking it off the truck? as in taking the lines off and running individual lines into a there individual graduated cylinder and tweek it by turning the barrels accordingly? or is this just a poor boy idea? haha

If you could spin the pump to at least 1500rpm by using the starter go ahead and give it a try lol. At the lower rpms the flow is alot more inconsistant to measure I think. At least I've never seen a flow sheet that the pump stand only spun the pump to 200 rpm.
 
5ks are in, just got new seats installed, bumped timing up to 18* for now, ofv060, 2095 rack plug, will be ordering an air dog II 200gph fuel pump, along with dual feeds and a Borgwarner S366. Next is valair dual disc with 4340 billet 1 3/8 input shaft, head/valvetrain work, and send the pump off to get benched, and get the head o-ringed. Made My own intake elbow and intake tube out of aluminim w/ a donaldson air filter. not the best build, people can hate but im happy at the pace its going.
