How To Make SMOKE And Lots Of It!
Hey guys, got a 97 ram 2500 with the old cummins oil burner...
The truck is just another play toy (definately no daily driver street rig)and i want to get this thing to roll out the smoke. Im not talking a little hoot of smoke when you stomp the loud pedal, im talking about blowing clouds of BLACK smoke that block out the sun for 30min! Also looking to have a little power behind all that smoke... I dont think anything looks better than an oil oil burner stopped, spooling the turbo(s) and pouring out clouds of smoke as it takes off like a f'n rocket! What do you figure is required for such an occasion? |
First off welcome to the site :hi::hi:
There will be some cummins fellas who will be able to help you out with that pretty soon. you could take a look at this hopefully this will help out some. https://www.dieselbombers.com/showth...t=turning+pump |
all you really need is a set a fuel plate to get the smoke also to kive it that kick get a set of performance injectors, fuel plate, governor spring and a turbo and you will be set
|
Throw out the fuel plate and gut the afc and she will smoke. Also make sure it has a good fresh fuel filter in it. I dont suggest doing this without at least a egt guage.
|
cranked the starwheel all the way forward and moved the fuel plate about 3/4 of the way forward and it really woke up the truck!
Dont have my gauges on right now so i dont want to slide the plate all the way forward just yet! Anyone know how much HP a 215 pump would be pushing with the stock plate all the way forward? |
if you just purchase a cut fuel plate like a #5 like mine you will boost the power up quite a bit also i just put in my #5 fuel plate friday at 1/4 and it leaves a smoke trail the length of a freeway on-ramp
|
Once i get the pyro in ill be grinding the plate myself, why pay a couple hundred bucks for something i can do in 5min and cost nothing? lol
Anyone know if these things will run pretty hot with the stock plate all the way forward? I want to try sliding it all the way but ill wait for the gauges if its known to be hot like that. |

no you wont get that hot with a stock plate
