:thumbsup that should work great hope the guy knows all the tricks

 

Let us know how it turns out. I have one, except for it's a C, and I'd like to have the same thing done to mine.

 

Anybody know what the break down on that $2000 price tag is? We've got a peec engine in a cabover that we are going to part out and I'm just wondering how much it would cost us if we weren't paying labor.

 

thereis a list of parts on the peec tweek thread in the similar threads box at the bottom of the page:thumbsup

 

Really, he is replacing the whole pump, it can all be done with just the governor modification, of course if your going up in power then I understand.:rock

 

The only "up" in power will be the fuel settings. The pumps are the same from 310 to 460 and everything in between. The easiest is to leave the pump on the engine, and change the rack, and back housings. I'm sure the mechanic found the same static time pump to use. In a pinch, you can even use the same timing advance...just change the spool and add the mech parts. you actually have more variance of adjustment with the PEEC advance versus a mech advance. A PEEC offers twice as much advance being it has two sets of helical teeth, versus one set.

 

For people who have done this on peterbilts, will removing the elm effect any gauges . If so what did you do to fix them. We are going to start it in the morning

 

No effect on gauges at all. Just no more cruise....what a bummer

 

Well all I have to say is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
It really a different truck. Its respond better and engine sound different. Way better. Can't wait till monday to put it to work.

 

I'm curious to know also what, if any, fuel mileage difference there will be.

 

have not notice any difference in fuel mileage. Will turning it up 1-2 turns on screws affect mileage. its at 400hp. what do you guys think

 

Using an Allen wrench and tape measure, usually 1/2" travel in and out is all you want, without having to watch your pyro. You can go more...just watch your heat.

Anytime you increase power, you increase fuel mileage....don't have to keep your foot in it all the time. But, there is such a thing as too much.

 

had a 93 pete long hood with a peec converted to mechanical. 24 degree injection pump cam, ported and polished injection pump, 525 hp stationary engine injectors, ht3b holset from Bell turbo and a few other things. ran great and would recommend it. made good mileage didnt smoke bad and would pull with any stock 600 cat and never get over 900 degrees behind turbo. fuel screw was barely turned out. hear if you run E model pistons you can turn the timing up further and run more fuel without heating. truck got wrecked before i had a chance to do it though
