Larger pump drive gear ??
by cummins32 » Fri Sep 26, 2014 7:18 am
I was thinking, since a ve pump pushes more fuel at low rpms would a larger diameter gear reduce the pump rpms enough ?

Won't work. You would have to fab a new gearcase to mount the pump farther from the cam, then it would screw up the fuel timing. The gear is sized to allow the pump to turn 1 revolution to the cranks 2 revs. Like a distributor, (which is actually is).

Just enough power to break everything behind the crankshaft.
