Question Why Not A Dual Type VP44?

Just curious why us fatal VP44 owners can't run a dual set up like the CP3 crowd??? Is this possible????

We can utilize the CP3 Pumps in a dual setup because there a Common Rail. Theres no Rail in the 2ns gen trucks! The fuel come dirrectly from the pump its self to the injector!

Because the CP3 has a single inlet and single outlet, so you can feed it in series.

The VP44 has a single inlet and six outlets that feed at different firing orders. Obviously that does not work.

Another reason would be, you just would have reduced the reliability by a factor of two

No doubt!!! I was just wondering if there's a solution or alternative to the Monster VP44 that's supose to be out there. I'm sure someone has tried everything to solve this problem??

We saw actual dyno sheets on the monster pump from a dyno jet and it DID make 640RWHP on fuel only, and puts the truck in 7.66's and 7.70's all day long, but thats with Mach 7's not DDP Sticks , I'm sure more power could be made with bigger sticks! I might try one, I have a buddie with a stage 3 in my area! I'll let you know what happens!

Our new setup is a Custom HTT Charger that isnt released yet, a Set of Custom Made Mach 8's, and a VERY Healthy Nitrous kit! I'm sure we could prove if the monster pump is plausible or not!

That would most likely be my next move. Still cheaper to convert a truck I still like than it would be to buy a new truck.

I supose. I just can't get rid of my 2001, it's a beauty!! I really would like do a 2003 engine/tranny swap into the 2001 but that would cost a fortune I'm sure!!!

Oh boy. CR swap here we come. Someone get ahold of 5.9 Excursion, I'm sure he could shed some light and offer his rock driveway to help
