Performance VE pumps?
 
I recently bought my first diesel pick up. Been tinkering with them for ahile now and i now have my own. It is a '91.5 D250 Reg. cab. I have plans of building this truck for power, to make it quick and that is it. Ive messed with my VE pump some but was curious if anybody out there knows whether i can buy an after market fuel pump, (ex. Dragonfire VP44) Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

you can but the ppump swap would be better in the end

Project_White_Lightning 10-21-2011 05:07 PM

yeah thats what im researching now.. in the end, im wanting my truck to have twins, stage 2 injectors and .094 lines with p-pump, and FASS pump... and lots of other goodies.. Thank you for your help though!

you can get a 14mm head and rotor pump

Project_White_Lightning 10-21-2011 08:42 PM

is that a form of the VE? or what are you referring to by the 14mm head? and by rotor pump are you meaning rotary pump? thanks

He is talking about a 14mm head and rotor for the VE pump. You have a long ways to go before you need that. Alot of power can be made from a healthy stock pump. If your goals are eventually a built P-Pump truck don't waste you time or money on an aftermarket VE. Build the truck to all you can with the stocker (twins, injectors, pin, ect) then swap the pump as a final. I think you will be surprised at what you can do with the 12mm VE.

Alright thanks guys! I think im just gonna go with the plan of all the bolt-ons, such as twins injectors, lines ,pin qnd then the p-pump.. id also like to put a locker in the truck, is there any specific brand that you guys reccommend?

If your going to drive it on the street you can't do better than a good selectable locker like an ARB Air Locker. Especially if you tow and/or drive in icy conditions.

My goal is to make this truck a street legal truck but also something i can take to the local drag strip and still be a contender. My buddy has a 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 he has a VP44 that is just about shot and a Quadzilla w/ Adrenaline with the most agressive tune on it. I want to be faster than his truck. so if you know of a locker that will help me out with what im wanting to get out of this truck. Wicked fast project truck.

RSWORDS 10-22-2011 06:06 PM

If thats all he has you should beYou 2wd or 4wd?

Project_White_Lightning 10-22-2011 06:33 PM

I am 2wd, so im lowering the truck quite a bit, this truck will never see mud or pull anything..

How fast is your Buddy's truck (ET & MPH) ?

Project_White_Lightning 10-23-2011 03:53 AM

Not sure on ET but its pretty quick, racin a powerstroke on the highway we broke 100.. but that was about all his truck had.. the powerstroke was still no match though

i saw on your Comp White you have a Stage II Denny Pin, i was pricing out the "Old Smokey Power Pin" Im eventually planning on P-Pumping this truck as discussed but for now do you think i would be satisfied with this pin? It is $100 cheaper than the old smokey pin.... so if its worth the money than i would just go aheasd and order it.. :humm::bat::bat:

Performance VE pumps?
 
Detroit trutrac x2 had one in my 84. It's a limited slip but it rips both wheels like a locker all day long. Very rarely did I ever kick one wheel in a turn and never ripped a single wheel on a straight stretch. Truck liked to drive sideways more than it did straight lol.
