So I posted this thread over at The Truck Stop to see what the 6.5 Chevy guys thought and they gave me a few things to think about. I figured I would post it here as well. Anyway here is the thread over there to get you all started.

Anyway, I know that the Chevy sounds opposite of the Ford but I'm not sure how it week affect the pump if I spin it the opposite way. Does anyone know if the cam ring can be flipped? If it can't my idea was to change the firing order by having custom injectors lines made.
Also does anybody know if spinning in reverse would affect the optic sensor or the stepper motor? I'm guessing it does and that I would need to find a way to make those work or change them out for something else. Additionally as far as the ECM and other sensors go that shouldn't be to horrible. I found a way to write my own tunes and even do multiple tunes as well. I have a background in electronics so that won't be bad.
I know a few of you will wonder why I want to do this and that a mechanical pump keeps it simple, but I just really want to do something fun and unique if it is feasible. Plus it will be fun to nerd out on the electronics side of it as well. So do you guys have any input to help me get started?
