hi, I am new to this forum and have an 84 gmc that I am currently in the process of building an 01 24v motor for and am looking into a p pump conversion to possibly keep the wiring down? What will be needed as far as electronics for this motor besides gauges to get it up and going. I am also tossing the idea of a built automatic around which I believe I should be able to get a stand alone unit for. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

get a 47rh then you wont need any electronics you can use a manual od or hook up a pressure switch for od there is a port on pass side

the money you save buying the controller put into the trans for upgrades

 

alright thank you I will look into one of those what year of trucks were those ran in?

 

the first gen dodge diesels were manual shift. automatics

 

ok thanks any ideas on what wiring will be needed on the motor? I am assuming that being a mechanical injection pump it will not need really anything to run, am I correct?

 

If you p-pump your truck all you will need to run is 12v to the pump. IIRC its the same thing as the old VE. 12v opens a shutoff solenoid allowing fuel from the delivery pump to the injection pump.That and the wires to the starter

 

good that's all I was thinking would be need but had to make sure. this will save a lot of time in the wiring dep. which I wont complain about
