Air assist was an acquired taste. I loved mine,it was better then Armstrong. Quirky but better then nothing.

Nice work.

So you need one 675 Jake housing? They are out there, but only needing one will likely be tough to purchase as most as sold in a set.

I swapped the old lock down style for the screw down version in my 300+. No issues. I did end up buying a screw down model as things are tighter around the pump on the 300 and that bailing ring would be a nuisance. I never needed to pump it, the original pump was broken and I just needed something to screw into the transfer pump.

Sorry, still have a T bar seat......there is no lowering it.

While at the shop Saturday, friend offered me one of those air splitter shifters. He bought it from Chrome shop mafia some years back for like $600 and never installed it. He says I can have it. He says you won't believe have cheap it is for the money. Just a lever hooked to an old school splitter valve. Real simple. I may or may not use it 🤨

Peterbilt??? Probably 5 ft tall and a glitter ball on the end.....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Friend gave me number to local place so I will call and just see what I have to work with. I know it get very pricey. Maybe it is just a governor setting? An old BMT member sent me some pump numbers for a 320hp motor so I have something to work with. Time will tell.

So a fancy pump? Mine has a Robert Bosch which I was told is the pump to have

The boss is nuts. He is ALWAYS hot rodn shit. It's always never fast enough.....

I lifted both off the ground and carried them out and out them in my pickup. Then unload at shop. Yowza. Glad I'm still young....🤣 I just spent part of the day out torquing the rods down. Then installed oil pump after doing a quick backwash with fresh oil to make sure it was clean. I got the air compressor installed also and remade the coolant line for it. Just little things to keep picking stuff off the floor. I need to address that rear seal so I can get the pan installed.

15# is about right. I was having power issues years back and found my lift pump was failing. I mounted a fuel pressure gauge out on the air cleaner so I could watch it while driving. It would rise and fall. Replaced pump and was a solid 15#. If you don't have a liquid filled gauge it will flutter due to check valves in the pump. A liquid filled gauge will dampen the bouncing needle some. The lift pump is where the plastic check valves are at that was mentioned to check by Terry.

Thanks for the ideas. I left the heads at machine shop as too freaking heavy to load and unload again. Will gather some tools and try again next weekend.

So with working with injectors, I was poking around my manual I looked at injection pump numbers. Knowing this is set at 295 HP(lowest setting), I wonder what pump number is the 320hp model? It doesn't denote anything like that. Being a gear head I am already thinking of more HP. 😲. If I knew what pump number for 320 hp version I could send pump out and tell said shop to make it to that specification. Maybe. Just dreaming.

The banjo threads are m10x1.0(haven't confirmed pitch but likely but OD is .390). I have everything metric at work because we do a lot of metric) but nothing at home. Might buy a few bolts on way to shop and use their small slide hammer to try to pop them loose.
