It’s a thought, I don’t know how willing they would be to do such small batches, there’s not a huge demand for stuff like this, if I sold ten a year it would be worth it for sure. I think going forward the inline pump conversion will be the best long term solution but that’s much further down the line. The stanadyne parts are getting to the point even the db2 rebuilds will be thousands of dollars, lots of pumps lately have been taking two to three cores just to make one good pump
Yes, the first db4 cam pin had one and gave us troubles, it’s a chamfer for the inner advance plunger that the light load advance acts on, with the chamfer the plunger would snag and keep the piston from sliding over. Going with this ag style db4 cam pin that has no chamfer eliminated that issue, it required us to rewrite the light load advance settings a bit to accommodate for less travel in the inner plunger but it’s doable without any modifications to the light load advance setup.So is that chamfer around the 3/8" hole important? I noticed that it's not there on the "about 7/16"" hole. That's a big difference on hole sizes on a part that small.
Thanks brother, lookin forward to hearing that bronco runSo kool man. Cant wait, great work as always!
Thank you sir, Justin at R&D has been a help in this project, letting me bounce ideas and questions off him from time to time and sharing info on his own pumps, as well as @Goose_ss4 whos keeping the show goin. As of right now, I’m the only pump rebuilder that offers a warrantied db2 with more than 100cc, and in the next few months I’ll be setting up my test stands in house which is going to allow me to make these pumps a bit more affordable, as well as give me the ability to spend some time on some other ideas I have to really push the db2 platform, I’ve got a db2845 that needs to be built after this for the race truck36 years after their debut someone has found the time and patience to really understand the pumps. Thanks Wes! I’m sure Mel from Connestoga helped push this a long as well as others.
