Piers ????'s

Hey all,

I was wondering if you have to call to place an order with Piers?

Also, has anyone else used their KDP tab? What else am I going to need to do the job? (I.E. gaskets, seals, threadlock, etc...)

Thanks..

Jake

Yes you call to place an order.

I've never used a KDP tab on a first gen, front cover is slightly different and a tab just won't work right.

It's no longer "Pier's" or "Piers Diesel Research". Pier's left PDR, he's no longer associated with them. It's now Performance Diesel Research. Please don't associate Piers with PDR anymore. I wouldn't give them a dime. Pier's was a stand up guy, but the rest of them.....

So then, does Piers have a new shop he is running? If so, can you hook us up with a website addy? Thanks... Jake

Depends on what you/I need. I get most of my parts from Cummins. Fuel injection parts, such as the 366 gov spring, from www.scheiddiesel.com.

You can make your own tab like this



You can get the seal from Dodge or Cummins or I bought one from Carquest and then all you need is the locktite and RTV for the cover which you can get from anywhere.
