89 Dodge 12v 5.9 1 ton dually Mods?
Im going to pick up my 89 1 ton dually 12 valve cummins hopefully this weekend.
As far as I know it is bbone stock. It only has 48k miles and hardly any rust on the
truck. I'm planning on fixin the rust myself but is there any motor / tranny upgrades
I should do to make it run or drive better? I heard that these models don't have
inter-coolers from stock is this true? and would it be worth my time to look into one?
Also want to upgrade fuel delivery a little. Is that just a screw to turn or do I need
a new pump and injectors? any help is aprecciated Thx

injector pump on your truck will be a ve whcih can be turned up by adjusting screws also look into fuel pin cold air intake. intercooled models started in 91.5 forward. anything prior is non intercooled from factory.

Most non-ic guys seem to like the 2nd gen IC to fit in their truck.
How I installed a 2nd gen intercooler into a non-IC truck, with basic hand tools - Dodge Diesel - Diesel Truck Resource Forums
Get gauges and then do some modding.
Lots of research, here is link to many answers
