On the fuel injection pump-

That is what is used on the '94- 98.4 Rams. Several different variations of them, for the different hp ratings.

160, 175, 180 and 215 hp ratings.

#1 - p7100 is stock on 94-98 12v rams. Depending on truck model hp ratings are different.

-94-95 (auto.) 160hp/400tq........ (man.) 175hp/420tq
-96-98 (auto.) 180hp/420tq........ (man.) 215hp/440tq

The 96-98 manual equiped ram diesel has the most desired p7100 because of having the largest potenial for SERIOUS fuel output.

Yes, having a p7100 under your hood is priceless!!!!Its the most desired pump.

Number two.....dont know, i row my gears
