3rd Gen P-Pump conversion
 
My question surrounding the P-Pump conversion is with the 3rd Gen head, specifically will the 3rd Gen head accept 2nd Gen injectors?
Thanks for your input.

I'm not an expert, but from what I've heard around here is the spray pattern of the injector is different depending on the shape of the piston surface, among other things.

I am not in the financial position to attempt that change at this point.
Installed new lift and CP3 pumps now preparing to install new +100hp injectors.

Have you installed new +100hp injectors?

I recently bought the car in online auction, they were using Live Video Streaming, so I could see the condition and I also noticed that I will need to update injectors, so there is my advice.
The compatibility of using 2nd Gen injectors with a 3rd Gen head in a P-Pump conversion depends on the specific engine and its components.
Generally, the 3rd Gen Cummins engines (commonly found in Dodge Ram trucks) are equipped with the Bosch Common Rail fuel injection system, while the 2nd Gen Cummins engines utilize the P-Pump (also known as the Bosch P7100 injection pump).

Converting from a Common Rail system to a P-Pump setup involves several modifications, including replacing the stock cylinder head with one compatible with the P-Pump. During this conversion, it's common to use components from different generations of Cummins engines to achieve the desired performance and compatibility.
