What is the maximum you can take out of the original pump with all thing turned on max? I am going to mount a big turbo and intercooler.

Somewhere somebody said that 250HP, later you have tu use the injection pump from a Penta engine.

Max fuel flow is related to the size of the head and lift of the cam plate. I would get rebuilt injectors and have them set at the high end of the spectrum of opening pressure, that should help with atomization. From there, you can go to a 11mm head. There are also higher lift cam plates, though you would need a new head to go with that anyway, as installing a higher lift plate once the head has already worn in would be bad. Also, for full potential of the pump, a lift pump should be installed. If you can find a diesel compatable pump over there that pushes around 15 psi you will be good. Much over 20 psi and the front shaft seal can start to leak or blow out.

If you read through the modding the injection pump post I put up, it talks about the AFC housing... You can get more fuel if you grind the fuel pin to allow the pin that travels on it to go in further. You can buy them (they are adverstised for the cummins diesel engines), but you can just as easily weld up one side and then grind the other side deeper. Just make sure you have a very smooth polished surface for the pin to ride on when your done.

Around 150 hp my local dieselguru tells me is possible with another turbo and with standard parts in the fuel pump.... Injectors are good for more power than the engine can handle...

I bet I'll put down more than 150 at the wheels... That pump can push quite alot of fuel. I don't even have the collar off mine and compaired to my friends D24t it is a hell of alot faster!

You could also help offset fueling deficiencies of your pump by running Methanol injection under high boost conditions.

rotorpumps are often oversized an d24 pump delivers almost double as much as an mercedes 300tdt pump

Yes that is true. About 170hp is maxium power with orginal pump whatever turbocharger you have and that is fact. Who said more, they are dreaming :) Pump needs bigger liquidhead if you want more power...

You need only good cooler and more boost/fuel. If you but bigger turbo, you also need bigger pump. Liquidheads are not expensive if you order it from china.

Are you running a chineese pump head? How has it held up? How much and where did you buy it from? Did you run the Cummins 2.8mm lift cam plate or the stock 2.3mm?

Yes i have 2 tuned pump with chinese head. There in the finland we sometimes do grouporders. New chinese head cost about 100 euros when it is in your hand in here finland. Originaly bosch head is better but it cost near to 1000euro :eek:

You can order it from here...

6/12L bosch nro 1 468 336 626 is a right liquidhead.

I don`t know spects of my cam plate but it is better than original.

Its maybe better to give your pump somebody whos professional. Homemade pumps doesnt work very well. If you do it your self you get maybe 20-50% more fuel but if professional do it you get near to 100% more fuel. And other problems is going too if you build it your self.

How much that head cost in ebay?

I sent them a message since they didn't have the part number we need listed. They quoted me $44 US dollars. Don't know how that converts to euros though. I've messed with ve pumps quite a bit, and think I can build one up... I'm doing it out of another pump, so my stock pump thats in good working order will be on hand in case the hotrod one doesn't work correctly or fails. There isn't anyone around here that will build one like what I want, and Giles up in Canada wants around $900 to do it, not including the bigger head.

Its not mission imbosible. I can do it my self too but homemade pump is not working like it should. Pumptester is necessary if you want good pump. There in finland liquidhead change etc cost 150-300 euros(210-420$).
