if ur truck isnt giving you any problems you dont need to replace it, if u want to see if the pump has been replace before, just look on the pump. it will say remanufactured if it has been replaced

Or a custom Holley setup, or even a mechanical belt drive pump!

I have a Holley black... One already failed me once! They start to leak from the seals about a month after new... Just not made for diesel fuel. Thats even what i was told directly from Holley when i contacted them.
The Holley that i have now is about 4 months old or so, makes just a shade above 10psi at WOT!

Anyone HAVE an aftermarket pump and a Edge? What kind of wheel power are you getting?

We ran a mechanical lift pump and had over 18psi at WOT with RV275 injectors, Edge Drag Comp on kill mode (5x5), and stacked with a Smarty.

just worked on a customers rig, get this, 168,xxx miles on the ORIGINAL lift pump and VP, about 6 months ago I told them to address the lift pump when I put in a new water pump. "it's been this long like this, it'll be fine" I didn't say told you so, the repair bill did it for me.

although this time they listened to me about the lift pump.

Replaced the IP at 150,000 thinkin it was screwing up turns out it was the lift pump shutting off from a loose connection.....IP was fine so ended up to be a $1500 rookie mistake for me .....but i got a buddy with over 200,000 on his stock VP (slowly dieing though)

are you talking about a flashpaq with the Edge if so why not that is what i was planning on doing
