Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) p-pump specs???

[SEmerson]

I was told that a 180 has differnt interal parts that a 215 pump. What about swaping pumps with a 8. 3 rv. A freind of mine has a rv sales shop and doesn't care if one of his 8. 3 gets a little slower. Would it be a direct swap and what would the internal parts be comparable with.

One thing I'm pretty sure of is that the govenor springs would be different. The C series engine is limited to about 2200 as I remember. You might be able to put a GSK in it though.

Why would you want to do it? The 180 pump can put out more fuel than all but the most seriously bombed can use.

Unless you get your hands on a P7100 out of a C8. 3L with the 450hp CPL... it's really not worth the effort.



It's so easy to tweak the pump in our trucks to produce unlawful amounts of fuel that swapping them out isn't really needed.

I would swap in my 4k gsk when I do it. I was told that a 180 pump can only go to 425 rwhp easly. And I would need a 215 pump to go past that.

the 215 pump is the only upgrade to go other than piers' crazy 160 pump or a 12 cylinder pump, oh ya! the 180 is good up to 485 (says Joe D. ) The 215 has a double helix and differnent cam. There are a alot of different p-7100 pumps out there on idustrial 5. 9's and 8. 3's. Don't waste your time and money on anything other than the 215 pump. u get the good fill time`, good DV's, and the thing just runs. Joe D. gets 633. 8 HP out of his stock 215 pump other than tuning, plate, and gov springs. He'll bet $500 dollars on anyone who doesn't believe him. So he told me, . . this was 6 months ago though.

 

[SEmerson]

Is there a way to tell if a pump is a 215 or not? Other than the timing cover.
