Opie has had this fuel sytem out for a long time, and was the ORIGINATOR of the first mechanical LP system, but has since went out on his own creating the Mitusa system!

If anyone want his # feel free to PM me and Ill give it to ya!!
He is a great guy and his prices on the systems are great! Cheaper than the Airdog/Fass systems!!!!!!!!! He also has kit to run these systems on the Dmax's.

Here is a link......http://www.opieparts.com

The Cat filter will work on that head. The fleetguard filter they have in the kit is NOT really a 2 micron, it is really 5 microns.
Their regular one might not be so bad, but the remote mount is the one I'd need with my intake elbow. 120 dollars for a few fittings, and a filter head and bracket made of sheet metal is a little pricey. I think I'd rather put one together myself instead.

Oh yeah I agree I made my own but the lines on FASS HPFP where easier to deal with than the stock lines. A baldwin fb1311, a pair of o-ring -10 to -6an and -6 pushlocks and your in business.

It bypasses through a filter back to the heater return like the Cummins kit, but with the added value of coolant filtering. I believe It's cheaper AND better than a $500 regulator that Opie himself doesn't seem to be able to explain, at least to my satisfaction.

Here's the website: http://www.opieparts.com
If I knew for sure that Opie's fuel pump was as good as the airdog, then I would be sold. I like the fact that if it fails, then you would still have the factory pump. If the airdog fails, then you are screwed. I just don't understand why more people aren't running the opie fuel pump if it's so good. So far it looks like a better system.
