Don't take it personally. I like to be involved in the hobby to the degree that you do, also. Just not so much now that I'm older. The 6.7 injector in a 5.9 hole is a good one that got out of hand. The air filter thread, too. Completely off.

I know each is different, but I’ve heard 16mm takes gobs of power to turn, just curious how much.
Columbus diesel I believe had a test stand at 100hp...I'm not certain of that, but I know if heard it can take 75hp on the nose of the cam to drive a good p-pump.


To the OP...if you have to have your grubby little paws in it, and no one else's, you probably had better resign yourself to the fact that it's going to run like dog chit...because it will.

It takes half a lifetime to learn the ins and outs of a mechanical device with the tolerances of an inline pump, and a healthy checkbook to buy the equipment necessary to do proper hot rod modifications....also, it takes knowing you can't do it all yourself, and knowing that someone else might just know more than you do.
