well yea, the injection pump on these is electronic so you need to first worry about the fuel pressure so it doesnt burn up then you gotta use a programmer to get more hp as well as turbo and injectors and such

So obviously no homework was done before walking in and asking questions. So far in this thread I see a guy that is shooting his mouth off. The 24V's are NOT "POS"s, they are just newer and have electronics. Want the biggest power #'s? Get a 12V P-Pump, want a truck that is capable of high idle, 3 cyl warm up, and easier cold weather statlting? Get a 24V or newer. They both have there advantages and disadvantages. I strongly suggest looking into things before you start labeling certain engines "POS"s.
