You scared me for a minute there.

 

Seems like you may have been in pieces.Just wondering if Saturday was going to be a tuning session for you or a wrenching session?

 

Cam as in Camera I think is where the confusion is.

 

I hate it when someone so young starts getting confused so easily. John is such a nice guy.

 

It's ok. My next go fast goody will be a set of slicks if I can ever find some. That and the Diablo Predator Tuner I'm geting tomorrow. So yeh Sat. will be a tunning session for me.

 

I linked a site to happy, I think in this thread, that will build you whatever you need.

 

If you haven't seen it, here it is.

 

Hey guys I probably should put this on the performance page, but I know yall have the brain power to tell me. Whats the difference in getting say 50 hp nozzles and 50 hp injectors. Or do you have to get both.

 

Nozzels are just the tips of the injectors and injectors usually means the entire body tip and all. Either one is fine. Theres nothing to tearing an injector apart and replacing the tip or nozzle. A lot is all personal preferance to. They may be refering to the same thing, just different names. Most likely same thing.

We in the buisness refer to the tip as the tip or nozzle. The body is the body or nozzle holder

 

I finished installing my fuel pressure gauge today.
The gauge is nice, but I an't happy with the pressure.

cycle the pump, engine not running - it builds 15 psi, but drops when the pump stops. (is that normal?)

engine idline - 14psi

driving the truck, it is like there is a connection between the throttle and the FP. It definitly ain't steady!

Empty truck, I can hit 10-11 psi on the 1-40 on-ramp.
Driving around, it is mostely 13-14 psi.

I only drove it home from my shop today (jumped on i-40 from Danny Thomas to Riverside exit).

This is with NEW campaign pump relocated to frame rail, new filter, Vulcan big line kit.

My truck has the rv 275 injectors & a boost module. stock turbo, no fueling box... see more truck details here.

Comments?

 

Sounds about right to me Prospector. Your fuel pressure will flucuate with engine driven fuel demand.

 

Hey TRad I've allways know about Stockton. And have allways been an option for me. Just knew they would prob be expensive. I'll have to call them up and see about some custom rims in 16" made with a special backside curvature to clear the brakes. Prob be my best bet, and I'm tired of looking around and asking questions people don't seem to know the answer to.

Like I told Dmax earlier. It seems I'm the only one around attempting this on a 2wd 3rd Gen.

 

Dmax, PDR has both at the the same hp rating. the tips were cheaper and if I go with something and get the same power why not go with the cheaper ones? The next question will be if I do get some how big. 50 hp 100hp or what.

 

The tips are cheaper becouse you have to take your injectors out and replace the tips and put your injector bodies with the new tips back in. If get the new injectors they already have the new tips and you just pull and replace and then you have a complete set of extra injectors. But I'm not sure what good used stock injectors would do.
Oh, and go big or go home. Wouldn't be much fun to pay for and replace with the 50's and then wonder what the 100's would be like.
