6.5 injector and pump question
Hello all, thank you for your time and input, it is greatly appreciated. I need help figuring out what I should do about my injection pump and injectors.
I currently am rebuilding my mechanical 6.5 and here is what i know about it.
for about 3 years i have owned a 1985 dually that was originally a 6.2L non turbo. At some point the Banks turbo kit was put on. Now currently installed is a 6.5L with the same Banks turbo kit. It is a fairly small non-waste-gated turbo, which i am ok with. Currently it has a mechanical DB2831-5088 injection pump. All other 6.2 stuff was transferred over, including the short Bosch 0430211054 injectors which google tells me are for a 6.2L.
My rebuild has resulted in a decked and bored .020 over block. Promax heads with studs. same crank but i had it balanced. same connecting rods. but everything else is new.
From what I have gathered, the injection pump is for a non turbo 6.5L. I am not sure if the pump has been turned up for the Banks turbo that it has, is there a way to check?
* My main question is regarding my injectors. With my pump, should I switch to 6.5 injectors? if so, which ones. Or are the 6.2 injectors sufficient. I do not want my engine to be built wild. I just want a mild nice running engine. should i stick with my pump or is the DB2-4911 pump worth the cost to switch to? i figure now that i have the engine torn apart, this is the time to switch anything around.
Let me know if any other info would be pertinent. And thank you again for any and all input.
