I am just curious what others have been running for inlet pressure into the simms pump. I am finishing up my 9000 Ford Farm Stock puller and am going to be using an electric pusher pump and regulator to supply fuel (doing away with the leak prone mechanical) to the injection pump and wondered what others have been running as far as inlet pressure. I was going to run about 20 psi to and I figure that is enough but wanted to hear what others have tried.
Specs of my puller:
401 bored .030 (class limit 436)
simms inline 9.5mm (limited to stock pump type and this year money limited this to 9.5mm instead of the 11mm class limit)
Mack injectors nozzles
Mild Port and Polish Job on the head, may step up to a genesis head as money allows.
H1E Holset turbo (rules allow 3lm466 or like sized turbo of 2.3 inlet, many in the class run HX40 but I had a brand new H1E laying in the garage)
I am not planning on winning much or any this year, just trying to get the tractor lined out before I go hotter with the engine. The class is 9,000lb farm stock, 436 cid limit, factory injection pump limited to 11mm in the case of the Simms, 2.3" turbo and other safety rules.
