Homemade fuel system
#11
im making a system for mine..... it involves a jegs alcohol pump, 1/2 line, a remote filter, and all the fittings..... im going to be running 100psi through mine all you have to do is change pump fittings...... im going to have under 500 in all mine and IMO its better than any fass/airdog

nice and yeah im a unoh'er hate to claim it at times..... im the diesel club vp..... we are builing a 1st gen with a 24V cummins and a Mack P-pump.....
but yeah i love to make my own stuff and show them boys that big bucks aint everything ..... heck depending on the turbo that im looking at i might not even do 2.6 cause of this small 72 im looking at....

im going to be running 100psi through mine
I'll bite and ask the dumb question since no one else has....
WHY would you run 100psi with a P-7100?.
Its been proven already that any pressure above 45psi with a P-7100 adds ZERO power and is uneccessary.
IMO its better than any fass/airdog
And may I ask,what FACTS do you have to back up this theory?....I'd say none.
Do you even know what either of those fuel systems do for your truck or have you ever seen the benefits you gain with either brand?........Again,I'd say no.
IF you did understand what the FASS or AirDog did for your truck then you would have not made a uneducated statement like you did above.
On a p-pump more flow is better, a lot of psi wont hurt it either.
Again on PSI with a P-7100....
There is ZERO advantage in running any more than 45psi with a electrical fuel system on a P-7100.No power is gained and if you have a high volume pump there will be no chance of cavatation.
Here is what I do not understand when I see posts like this and some of the responses....
You can buy a AirDog 100 most places for about $500 and a FASS Titanium Series for about $550 and yet we still say that it can be done cheaper.You may build a fuel system for your truck at a lower cost but you will not build one that gives you the benefits of either a AD or FASS for less.I have ran the filters on my FASS over 50k and when they were changed they were cut apart to look them over and they could have gone another 50k or more easily.I know that Charlie,who owns PureFlow(AirDog) told me at Numidia last year his system on his truck(a AD-100) has had the same filters on for 5 years and they still did not need changed.
You guys say you can build them cheaper,try it and see how the long term benefits of your homemade system goes.I have had the motor on my FASS fail and when it did the warranty covered it and had me running within 2 days.The pump was over 2 years old when it failed,who is going to warranty your homebrewed systems,YOU out of your pocket.I am amazed when I see posts like this because it shows your lack of research of all the benefits of a good fuel system........

Whoa big big dog. I never made any claims on anything I posted about being better or cheaper. I built my dual pump system that I posted before FASS, AirDog or MITUSA ever hit the market and it was the best solution I found at that time. I still think that for particular applications it may still be a viable option, for instance if somebody has the pumps to use for it already on hand such as I did at the time.
Personally by choice I will never go back to an electric motor driven pump again, I love this belt drive system. The harder I push my truck the more fuel it pumps just the way it should be instead of the other way around.

I dont think he was directing that at you...but Im guessing.
The thing I dont understand - is that doesnt anyone account for the time you spend and expense from running all over the place to find the parts to kluge together to make a cheaper fuel system?? Airdog, Fass, and another I wont mention have a proven product and all the work, reseach and running around is already done for you. Its the same as the guys who drill out banjo bolts to get more flow - why the hell would you dink around with that when you can buy bigger ones??.... JMO.
