Postby rollieD250 » Sat Dec 13, 2014 10:28 am

(I did search for this)

Getting ready to order a 2nd gen lift pump from the hungry diesel and i have 2 options as im sure most of you guys know 15 or 18psi

Going to be running a 57/65/14, 5x12's, timing spacer, fuel screw, pin and 3200 spring in the near future

Thanks alot guys

Either one would be fine. I personally would go to the higher side, but 15 would keep up with that setup easily. It's not a bad idea to run bigger line from the tank up as well if more power is in your future.

If you go with the higher psi pump its recommended to loctite the front seal in the IP especially if its an older IP.

Anything you change from stock is obviously at your own risk, but 18 or 20 psi wouldn't scare me on a stock front seal.

The 15 psi will supply pretty much any setup. Unless one has very large injectors. Teh 15 maintains good pressure with my 5x17.
