Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) p7100 pump purchase questions

[Morphious]

Ok, I'm looking at buying a reman p7100 215 pump for my mud truck to get it running. I paid 700. 00 for the whole truck minus a pump, the pump was in pieces and missing atleast the cam for the pump and some of the internal parts are rusty, so I'm basically buying a pump and having to pay the core charge. I've found 3 places, pensacola diesel 795 + 300 core, TDE Systems 950 + 600 core and usdieselparts.com 1080 + 800 core.



Does anyone have any experience with any of these places and thier pumps?



I'd love to buy a stupid pump or some other highly modified pump, but unless they are are willing to sponsor me, they are out of the running due to budget reasons.

They all sound to cheap for a 7100 215. They must be used or core units.

 

[Morphious]

as opposed to paying the high prices for a new one at a race shop? They are all reman units, so are the normal pumps at the race shops.

I did not know there were any units available for that price. I have seen core prices higher than that. What a deal.

yeah, when you have more time than money, bet I've spent 20 hours searching for injector pumps and what's out there, all the big hot rod shops want a grand just for a core charge. I'm leaning towards buying the cheap pump and if it doesn't hold up, I've basically paid the core charge to one of the hotrod shops and only out 95. 00 then.

I would check with Piers (member) see what he can do (I would imagine his high HP pumps would be expensive). You mite be able to pick a cheap core on E-bay.
