VP44 Conversion to P-Pump ?
The VP44 on my 1999 RAM-2500, seams to gone to never never land after 14 months of usage!!!. This is my third VP44 after 10 years of owning this truck. Of course I have modified few things there just for fun.
Anyway, this one was bought from MIDWEST Fuel Injection. Anyway, I am dreaming about going to P-Pump. Need to know if anyone has done it, and if so, what do is your honest recommendation. Any idea how much it will cost? Thanks for all the good information. |
My buddy Tate converted his. Unfortunately, I missed all the work but he is very happy with his conversion. Although, I dont believe his cruise control works, but you could probably get it working somehow.
He bought the kit from Schied (I believe) and it was 3-4k total. Its supposedly not perfect but a lot better than the VP. Dont believe all the crap you hear that its not very streetable and just for high hp trucks - thats not true. Hes somewhere around 400 hp. |
Schied Diesel sells a conversion kit
|
yeah the kit aint cheap....its almost worth just buying a complete 12 valve and swapping it in.......
|
The way I see it, I can keep replacing these damn VP44's for about 6 times for price of one conversion!
I think I have to go with VP44 again. According to what I have been reading, it is too much work and $$$$$$$ to get it done correctly. Here I come MWFI dudes, another $1100 is coming your way. |
Maybe you should try a different pump?...the Bluechip diesel pumps are supposed to be really good but are more $$
|
I've had good luck with MWFI,the last pump I bought from them went 200k+,the engine block cracked and I got a SO engine,so the HO pump I have won't work on it.
Maybe you have some fuel problem? Dr.Evil is right,try a Bluechip,they are supposed to be a dang good pump. |
|
I thought Blue Chip is getting their VP44s from Salt Lake city dudes?
Are they rebuilding the VP44s themselves? |
Doubtful - but I guess anything is possible.
FYI, Blue Chip diesel was the inventor of the performance fuelling box for the 24V. They know the VP inside and out. |
