When your truck was falling on its face after 2500, was the pump still fueling hard or did it clean up? It sounds like I need to take a good look at the governor on my pump.

I’m with Destroked 450 on this & your off base. Difference is fill time & lift. When we used to build the PDR 13mm stupid pump, we would take a 160 or 175hp pump cam & grind the large egg shape profile of cam to a much steeper peak on nose. This greatly improved fill time. We also enlarged the splash shield holes for quicker over all fill of entire pump fuel passages from end to end. Twin feeding pump from both ends also helped. Over 60psi of feed pressure gained us nothing on our dyno FWIW.
And yes, Seth is a smart cookie & knows what he’s talking about.

Why not send it to a shop that can spin it with test injectors? You will get an overall much better result, IMHO.

Cleaned up totally. Clean as a stock truck above 27-2800.

Because I can't go there and watch it on the stand myself and be involved. That's a significant part of this hobby that I enjoy. I actually even made my own set of adapters so I can run 12v injectors on the test stand.

Ah damn, mine was still puking smoke when power falls off after 3000.

Might want to get a good flashlight, a brush and some powder. Check for JR Adkins fingerprints. If there are any on it throw it away. No shop can repair what he touched.

What about the result do you think will be better specifically?

I was involved in my pump build also Vince, I built the crate that I shipped it off in.

because every adjustment effects other functions of how the pump works. and if everything isn't set to work together correctly the pump as a whole isn't gonna work right.

so to answer your question... EVERYTHING about the results will be better than if you just turn knobs and screw all willy nilly and hope for a performance gain. Yes there are things to play with on everyone's individual trucks even after a pump has been set up by a professional. (they are set on a stand not a truck, thus real life needs tweaked) but if the basics are messed up the tuning will never be right.

send your pump off to be calibrated properly or have a 13mm pump that doesn't work right.

also ask the pump shop if you can witness the process. we use to let customers in to see issues on the stand. be prepared to not understand everything that is being done. you will have a little more faith in a certified pump guy after your experience.

This is a totally non-specific answer.

You are going to have to come to terms with the fact that professionals aren't going to broadcast the level of specificity you require on an internet forum. This is much more likely to happen if you have a conversation in private with one of these individuals.

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.

If the test stand doesn't have enough horsepower to turn the pump at full output through injectors you aren't going to get accurate delivery measurements.

I understand fuel delivery won't be measurable with the gutted injectors. My goal by doing that is to see at what rpm the governor starts to pull the rack back. That is all.

Fair enough. But I wasn't talking about running the gutted injectors. You asked about specific better results from a better equipped shop, which is what I was telling you. Just giving you my opinion on the matter, which is what I believe you were asking for. If that works for you, great. Not trying to get in a pissing match.

How many HP test stand does it take to run a 13,14 or 16mm?

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.


IMHO

Generally most test stands for common use will be around 25 HP. I've used stands ranging from 10 to 30 HP depending on what I am testing. Keep in mind they are BIG electric 3 phase motors, so really they use tons of torque to turn the pump. I've run 13 mm 12 cylinder p-pumps, 15-16 mm 6 and 12 cylinder pumps (ZW marine), Etc. A 100 HP test stand would probably be for big marine engine pumps. I use one of these for most standard p-pumps up to about 500 cc- AVM2-PC Test Stand | Hartridge
Beyond that I use a bigger Bosch stand. Like this one. EPS 815

Tight tolerances don't mean complexity. And on the grand scale of mechanical things that a person can get their hands on these pumps aren't complex at all. Ever take apart a mechanical wristwatch or seen the inside of a grandfather clock with a 100 year calender? I'm not really sure why some people have their panties in a ruffle because I like to know how things I own work. And the pump doesn't run "like chit" at all. It has one specific performance issue (high rpm fueling) and runs awesome in all other regards.
