Discuss your mechanical fueling experience

I have heard lots of different ideas of fueling and reliability on these 12 valve trucks. I like the idea of having a truck that is 100% MECHANICAL. I’ve seen lots of people adding programmers and advanced fueling systems to their trucks. I want to go the opposite direction.



Please discuss your experience with mechanical fuel pumps if you have them. I was thinking about using something like this……. Glacier Diesel Power | 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins Fuel Boss Base



Thank you

The factory style lift pumps can support 500HP if not more IIRC.

If you where building an all out drag truck that Glacier pump would be a great option. It is overkill for at least the street trucks I build and drive.

I agree that not running an electrical pump on your 12V is a smart choice for reliability.
