Default Injection pump

I have a 95 with the 175p-pump. And was wandering if I bought a 215 would it work on my truck or is there minor differences that wouldn't allow it to work

The engine won't really know the difference in what pump you run on it. The 215 will just provide more fuel than a bone stock 175 but you will still be limited to the stock 175 injectors in your engine. The main difference between the 175 and 215 are the barrels and plungers. The 215 pump has emission barrel and plungers and retard timing at higher RPM. The second difference is going to be the camshaft inside the pump, I don't know the complete specs on the difference but I know the cams are different. A lot of people like the 215 pump but in the end it is just a matter of opinion.

160s have my favorite barrels and plungers stock. 215s and 180s have a much better cam profile though.
