Injection pump
Hi guys I’m thinkinking about changing the injection pump on my 2012 I’m undecided over doing a duct conversion vs spx pump anyone have experience both? If a dcr grenades does it trash the fuel system?

As to "duct conversion," do you mean a disaster prevention kit? All up to you on what you want to do, but at the least install a S&S Gen 2.1 kit to protect the rest of the fuel system if the CP4 goes or go for it all, more $$, and install a DCR. My 2 cents worth.

Time will tell how good the DCR ends up being, however it is off to a very good start thus far.

If I'm not mistaken, their Gen 2 kit has resolved any hose issues. I mentioned my concerns about this very issue to the shop that's going to install mine in two weeks, and they confirmed that the newer generation kit addressed that Gen 1 issue (and, since they're an S&S distributor they no longer stock nor install Gen 1 kits).

I wonder how many miles their test mule trucks had in total with the early DCR pumps before they put it out for sale.... I bet you thousands....

Roger that. Two more weeks, and that CP4 'sword of Damocles' will no longer be hanging over my head. Also means that I can cut back on the fuel additives, and run the occasional Meaner Kleaner for injector and line maintenance.
