Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) drilling banjos

[boydo]

As truck is now, I see 17 psi @ idle and 6-7 psi WOT. I'm planning on bigger injectors, since the vp44 will require more fuel I have heard the banjo nuts can be drilled to allow better fuel flow to vp44. So has anybody done this? What size should they be drilled to? What is the minnium supply pressure to vp44 before damage/defueling/stravation occurs?

Thanks.

Drill them out to 0. 193" or you can buy some already made up. Check the classifieds in TDR.

Fuel Flow

Why not give Rod a shout over at WildCat Diesel www.wildcatdiesel.com he has a great braided kit of high quality fuel lines and high flow fittings ready to go with the VP-44 Injection Pump!

As far as drilling banjos, its an easy job to do yourself, just make sure you get them clean and free of all the metal shavings before reinstalling them. I personally wouldnt recommend going under 5 psi going to the VP44, but others might tell you different.
