My addiction

So this is the truck that started my addiction. This is about what it looked like when I brought it home in 2010. It has had a few different turbo, injector and pump setups. I'll just give a quick run down of what they were and what the current is.

First setup (past stock) was a set of cpp 7x.010s, he351cw, tst pm3/diablo power puck/smarty, built auto, and ad II 165.

Next notable setup was a bit of a step up. s467.7, Infinite performance 6x.013s, tst comp/ts mvp, common rail cylinder head, same built auto and lift pump. All this time was on the original injection pump which I did not realize until I ppumped.

The day after the dyno I decided to ppump to meet my further goals. Only things I changed was the injection pump and cylinder head (common rail head does not have the clearance required for a ppump). Single best modification I have ever done to the truck. Less smoke and more power. I ran 3 different turbo chargers with the first 180hp pump. S467.7, S475 and finally a S472. At which point I decided I needed compounds. Dyno sheet is for the initial setup. A 180hp pump with 5ks & 024 dvs, same 6x.013s, same trans and same lift pump. With a bit of nitrous involved.

And that brings us to the fun one. The compounds. The secondary (manifold) charger is a 66/68 with a .91 t4 housing. The primary is an S4T 86/110 with a 1.15 t6 housing. At this point I did purchase another ppump and sent it to Farrell Diesel to be benched. Transmission has been updated to a monster pump mike bolt together torque converter, larger input shaft and one of mikes outputs. I also stepped up to larger injector from Infinite. 6x.018s. It is a bit rowdy now lol.

Real question is where you go from here?  

 

 

A nice/decent body for it.

The real question is is it daily capable yet

 

Actually yes. When I fixed the trans pump that should be the last issue that keeps me from driving it. Though I am sure it will find something else to get upset about.

Awesome pic! What's the wheel/tire combo you're using here?

 

Just some old steel wagon wheels and cooper at/3's (junk)

That's weight reduction boss! 

 

All I can say is you've dynoed more power on fuel only with a vp than a Ppump 

 

Yea a whole 2hp difference LOL

Looks fun to me!  I love hot rodding.  

 

Where did you get the sport bumper?  Lmc?

 

Someone local had the complete bumper and brackets. I ordered the grill off of ebay. I had a sport grill frame laying around. I'll be on the hunt for them both again for my 12v. Cannot stand the chrome grills and bumper.

So THIS is the setup you've been alluding to all these years!  I'm really glad you posted, I find the P-pump vs VP dyno graphs interesting.

 

Am I reading that right, that on the 654hp VP run you started at 1200 RPM, but on the P-pump run you started at 2000RPM and still made peak torque sooner?  If so, I find that very interesting!  It's also cool to see how the VP does seem to hold the Power up into the higher RPM's better.  Do you remember what you're timing was on the P-pump?  What would you say were the limiting factors on both setups?

 

Super cool.  I was also very glad to see you ditch the hood stack. :woot:

Just when they triggered the dyno. I wish we could have gotten the tach pickup to work correctly on the ppump runs so we did not have to the do the rpm calculations and for a better visual. Timing was at 28*. Turbo charger for both and pump tuning (or lack of) with the ppump. The new 215 pump being benched is light years ahead of the old 180hp I had. I wish it was safe to take an acceleration video by myself holding a phone. It is violent to say the least.
