FULL FORCE FUELING

ADDING 117 HP WITH SCHEID DIESEL’S LIGHTNING PULLING INJECTORS

- 

We’ve started building our ‘95 Dodge “Green Monster” Ram to run 10s in the quarter-mile and make 1,000 rear-wheel horsepower, but we knew we needed to walk before we ran. While P-pump Dodges have huge power potentials even in stock form, one thing that is holding us back is our stock injectors. In factory form on ‘94’98 Dodges there are three different types of pumps, 160-hp, 180-hp. and 215-hp pumps. While each has their own specific traits, the 160-hp pump (which we have) is generally known to fuel the least compared to 180 and 215 pumps. We had to get more fuel in somehow to make more power, and injectors were the most obvious choice.

SIZING THINGS UP

Our ‘95 Dodge was built with injectors that had 5 hole nozzles at 0.009-inches in diameter (or 0.0095 depending on who you talk to) and were just fine for the factory 160 horsepower power rating. Larger injectors could see significant gains however, and we decided to step right past “larger” and step up to “big.”
