e9500v8 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Who knows someone good to rebuild these pumps and get a lot out of them? I have adjusted mine to the max and it is still not enough!! I put one of Dale Francis turbos on he says it should make 50-55 pounds and it makes 33 !! I have checked for boost leaks in intercooler and have none! Truck doesn't smoke much with this turbo so it tells me it is not getting enough to eat!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several I know have used them extensively and all are happy. They will work with you to deliver what you expect.I have recurring training classes there and visit them each time. Very nice folks and know what they are doing. Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

daveigou Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Let us know what the outcome is. I talked to Antrim Diesel in Chambersburg Pa, I know they re-worked some pumps for some local heavy haulers around here. Last time I talked to them they told me barrel plungers for one side of the (V type) pump were no longer available, and they didn't want to work on it.

That is similar to the problems I was having a couple of years ago with the vendor I used to patronize.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
