Swaping DT360 for DT466 mechanical

That old rotary pump(Model100) isn't the most desirable, but decent for the most part. What's gonna happen to the 360 after the swap?

That's a mean tree eater. I grew up in OR, so I've seen some neat and odd logging stuff.

The pump can be messed with, and is pretty simple. Basiclaly a screw and jamb nut under the big cover. Be careful, it'll get really smokey with a little adjustment.

OK, I got em. Does make a difference by not having the frame & junk in the way.
 
new gasket, head studs, main studs, heavy duty rod bolts, ported head, race prepped pump, big ol turbo, and you'll be set!
 
It's on post #15 of this thread. Plus, I think only one or two people on this whole forum have ever done the fuel rate on one. I'm going to attempt it here within the next few weeks
 
nevrenufhp,
you are welcome to try on my pump. come in NH.
It would cost less to send you an inline pump to replace the rotary. If I do it on the rotary, I'll be able to walk you though it.
 
I tried it last week. From what it looks like, and how the linkage works, it's the screw that's down in the pump about an inch. It takes a 12mm for the jamb nut and a 10mm for the bolt. I dont think I went enuf turns on the bolt, because it didnt do much. I tried to be conservative. I may have another attempt this week. It'll be more dramatic next time. The adjustment on the top, facing the rear seems to be the adjustment for pre-boost/low rpm
