That's a good price for the POD's, even though I don't like 'em too much, (too smokey for me, although a better turbo would help with that ) Still, a good upgrade for $200. Good luck with Ammco, I've heard nothing but bad stories about them. But the good thing is they warranty their work, so you have something to leverage them with if it goes south.

I'm new also! I have a 1992 intercooled with 50hp injectors, 366 spring, denny t, and my pump slightly turned up.. It's all riding in a 90 ramcharger.. pretty cool, but I am just as lost as you are so, good to know I'm not alone!

Both DennyT and M&H Industries make fuel pins for our trucks. There may be others too, (Old Smokey?) If the write up in the sticky is good enough, (I've not looked) thenthere should be some pictures of the pin and what it does etc.
AFAIK, both Denny and Thomas, (M&H) make different profiles for different applications. What happens is the fuel pin has a profile cut into it, and a 'needle' rides the profile, allowing more or less fuel to be sent through the fuel lines. I don't know the specifics, but that's basically it. Your stock pin you can keep or throw away or whatever. It's a very easy swap and I'm sure you'll be pleased with whatever you choose. From what I've read, both guys give GREAT customer service.

I will post pics either tonight or tomorrow.. I get her back today hopefully And as far as the fuel pin, just google VE pump fuel pin and find a good write up, or search the boards and you will know everything you need to.. As far as the fuel pin itself, I went with Denny T due to word of mouth, I'll slide it in tonight or tomorrow and let you know the difference.. I do hear great things and let me tell yyou, he's the best I've dealt with as far as customer service.. go to dennytperformance.com and view the pics yourself.. Also, you can youtube denny t pin and come up with a video Dennis made himself.. Hope that helps! But ya, keep an eye out for the new thread containing the Super Goat, as I like to call her.. hahaha

Id just get yours rebuilt its way to much work to do a 2x4-4x4. And if you need a tranz id go for a 4x4 5spd
