If you have a 15 PSI electric pump set up for your line size then starvations shouldnt ever be an issue. It feeds the fuel you need when it needs it.

The spec on the 4988751 is 32-43 gph and 30psi.

I think you may have some numbers mixed up.

The 3936320 pumps on all the trucks that I have messed with hold a steady 14- to 17-PSI .

I believe the 3936316 2nd Gen. pump is the one that holds 30-PSI or thereabouts.

I put a piston pump on the 93 and I noticed quite a difference in Topend power and ALOT of smoke cleared up!!

I got the same results from a Carter electric, 4601HP IIRC.

I'm also researching information on using an air starter.

I considered installing larger fuel line was part of the pump deal any way. So I didn't mention it.
