Piston Pump

If I'm gonna piston pump my motor am I going to have to regulate the pressure? If so anyone one know a good regulator to go with? My truck is practically done being rebuilt, but I still have to button up a few things, and do some extra stuff stuff that is for fun.

There is the low pressure piston pump that runs about 15 psi and you wont need a regulator. If you use the second gen piston pump then you will need to use a regulator. Part numbers for both are in the "sticky"

If you haven't aquired a pump yet I would suggest going with the low pressure pump. The plumbing is alot easier than installing a regulator.
