My VP44 went out and I'm getting it p pumped by a shop by me PDW i trust the guy and he does some great stuff on trucks. He had a pump that i could run but is it risky running it on a mostly stock truck for now?
heres whats done to the pump
180 pump
4k GSK
042 dv
high rate cam
high flow plungers
benched

I don't know much about the p pump but I've been reeding up, i haven't seem to be able to find anything about if i need to build up my engine to run this. all thats done is the stuff in my sig. I plan on turbo, injectors, head studs, and o ringed as soon as my finances allow, but is it going to hurt anything running this pump?

I don't think you are really risking anything. I can't wait till I get the chance to do my p-pump setup.
It wasn't risky when they put p-pumps on 12v out of the factory.

not risky just run an egt gauge and keep on eye on it, but you should be fine

Thanks, i wasn't sure
I am putting together a 24v with a p pump and can't wait to hear it run. Nothin' like old school!:drool2::thumbsup:

Yeah im excited! I'm just waiting on parts!
I found a 180 pump and just had it gone thru, the only parts so far are 5gsk. I am real sure where to go from here besides .093 lines.

it all depends on what you want to do with the whole set up

Rack plug, Dv's, fuel plate mods, 5k are a little steep for a bone stock pump
AFC mods for full rack travel.
I know somebody will tell me to search but what can be done with the AFC besides adjustment?
