fuel pin question
 

got some question about my fuel pin. i want more power so should i grind off my old one or just buy one thats already ground off??? need advice!:humm:

You can do either. You will see a great inprovement by just grinding but you will see more with something like teh DennyT... ALOT deeper track. Here is a Video Comparing the two

just take your time and grind it keep it true and straight

There isn't enough metal in the stock pin to get as deep of a ramp as a Denny T or an Old Smokey. Stay away from the Bully Dog pins. They were making pins with too soft of metal, but they're also overpriced.

Wow! That a huge improvement over the stock ground pin and the Denny T pin... I think I know what I tell my buddy to order...:humm:

what about the smokey pin

Its a good pin also.

GET OVERIT how do u figure about bully dog pins, the old smokey pin was like 200 + and the bully dog pins are 180 and under, also the bully dog adds more power than the old smokey and all i've heard about the old smokey is bad stuff. but i wouldn't know im just a newbie

RSWords u seem like u know alot cuz i was looking for some good performance upgrade for my 1st gen 12 v, have any suggestions

I run an Old Smokey (thanks Mike) I LOVE IT !! Cost me under 200 and took 15 minutes to install. Now when I burn onto the highway with my quads and trailer loaded I don't wonder if I'm going to get up to speed or not..... I know I will!!

i grinded mine off and but truck dynos at 512hp now so i would grind if i was u its free :rocking:

If you don't mind me asking, where did you get the 14mm H/R? Is it a KTA one?

dennyt pin IS 100.00 and usa made from texas and dennis is good people:U:

got to agree:U:.

M&H Pins
 

anyone check out or have a M&H pin??? IMO there better then denny's. I have a M&H 5.

The DennyT Stage II and M&H 5 cones are nearly identical. I have seen both side by side. The only difference is "Alwaysworking" offers different "stages" for his cones. Dennis used to make a Stage I, but everyone wanted the higher performance Stage II, so he discontinued the first one.

Even if there are differences in the cone, they would be so minimal, there would be no difference performance wise.

i went ahead and bought a new power pin and it helped alot but what made the most difference was the govener spring

Yeah that 3200 spring is awesome!

can some 1 send me the link so i can buy the dennt pin?:c:

Here Albert, Drop him an e-mail at dennytperformance@yahoo.com

He will get you set right up! Dennis is a AWESOME stand up guy! Tell him I sent you over from here on DieselBombers!

RSWORDS

You can get Denny's pin off his site now.

DDP
 

Does anyone know if the DDP fuel pins are good?:U::booo: It adds 10HP more than the DennyT and costs around $90 more.

all of the power pins add about 30-40 horsepower.....you want to know how some of these guys are getting 50+ horse with their pins, they are dynoing a built truck with a stock pin (stock pin is severely holding the truck back) then dynoing the truck with the new deep pin and thats where it comes from, the Bully Dog pin is complete junk, the PDR pin is a cut factory one i believe, i would go Smokey, Denny, M&H, or anyone that has one made out of good hard tool steel.......



OR GIVE ME A COUPLE WEEKS AND DEPENDING ON WHAT THEY COST ME I MAY SEND YOU ONE OF MINE FREE......IM HAVING SOME MADE AT THE LOCAL MACHINE SHOP.....

Yeah they are all about he same, I think DennyT's stage 2 has teh most agressize profile out there.

If you are going to get the Ol' Smokey pin, be sure it is the original and not the remake by Bully Dog. The Bully Dog pins are made of soft steel and gouge. The original ones will have a "OS" stamped on the bottom. I have the DennyT and the 3200 spring and those made me a whole new truck.

The DDP, bully dog, and old smokey were all designed by Mike.
Bully Dog and DDP make and sell them without his permission.
There are quality control issues with them, too, Bully dog pins will groove.

Order an Old Smokey directly from Mike, it's heat treated and he gives you a guarantee!

So does M&H and DennyT.... Both of which are about half teh price. M&H is also a sponcor on here! :U:

Old smokey is 100 bucks.

I just made my own :yeah:

did you grind the factory pin? you can only go so far with the factory pin... an aftermarket pin is much more aggressive but a ground stock pin does just fine to satisfy your need of fuel until you get a new precision cut pin

I did grind the factory pin and didn't get much.. so I pulled out a nice hard round rod and turned it down, then ground the profile I liked into it, bolted it up and away I went!

any of you guy try running it without the pin, i had my truck like that for a long time i just put a bolt in the diaphram and put it back in, wow what a difference and just so u guys know no the delivery pin cant fall out it is attatched to a lever and it is'nt mutch different then runnin a m&h 5 or a denny t 2 the delivery pin stops about a 1/8 from the chamber wall, the only ill effect that i notice was after about a week i noticed the relief tube on the top of the pump was weeping a little

The pin will travel farter then the seal. that is were the fuel is coming from.

farter?
I'm sorry but this cracked me up LOL!!:c:

lol he said fart

It's the simple things in life, aint it? :tttt::choochoo:

simple things or people? :c:

A wise man once said that it is better to be a smart feller than a fart smeller. :nose:
These smilies are great.

Piers diesel PDR has a pin that is cut "deaper then the denny t II its the factory pin machined but looks clean ....doesnt wear $75 us
