Injector, Stock VP-44 And LIft Pump ?

Will the stock lift pump and VP44 support 75 horsepower injectors. I have a fuel pressure gauge to monitor fuel delivery. I drive the truck everyday, and get on it every once in awhile, and I do not tow anything.

VP44, yes.

Stock lift pump, most likely. Unless it's weak. Remember, you'll need an electronic boost fooler if you plan on raising boost. This can be done with a standalone fooler or they are commonly built into most of the aftermarket boxes.

Save yourself $$ down the road and install a FASS or Airdog and never have to worry about it. I wouldn't risk a $1100 VP pump.

i'm running stock injectors yet but have a 60hp programmer and ruuning 25-30 psi. boost and as of now i am still running stock lift pump it runs ok but i do plan on upgrading to a FASS DDRP which is a stock style pump but fass makes it it puts out about 30% more fuel than the stockers so when i put that on I will also put injectors on

When I first bought my truck, I installed an EZ and a set of DD2 injectors and drove the crap out of it with no problems at all. Just watch your fuel pressure.

You can step onto the FASS or Airdog band wagon but it's not needed, I'm still to this day running a stock Carter lift pump, relocated to the frame, and haven't had any problems yet. Yes, it's my fifth Carter but you can find them anywhere and I'm still under the price of a FASS.

if you plan on keeping your truck mostly stock just keep an eye on your fuel pressure and if and when it starts to get lower fuel psi. swap in a FASS DDRP they are only about $260 a lot less $$$ than the big dogs and if you plan to keep your tuning mild you should be just fine
