Brok the good camera, so my pictures may be sketchy... and there are none yet.
Here is the story, I drive a 1990 Centurion Bronco. It was cursed witha 460 from birth. I daily driver it, and couldn't affor dthe fuel bill anymore, so we started buying parts pickups...
We bought a cab and chassis IDI with virtually no blowby, fired up and idled like a new truck. Paid $50 for my IH branded pyro ( ) will be buying a boost gauge from a Volvo at the pick and pull, either the more common 3 bar, or the rarer 5 bar, should more than register what I need registered... and I have an intercooler form a 7.3
Not the bell and flywheel, but we have those in the lifted truck.
(and the kicker is.... I got a free lift kit out of the deal, which I will need to fit the 40's I traded into, and then there is the 3.73 axles I traded down to from 4.10's, my NP435 should be pushing the truck down the road through the 40's and 3.73's at 2k rpm at 65 mph..... pimpin'!)
Got the donor (c&c) de clipped and should have cherry out tonight....
Will come back tomorrow with pics.

These injection pumps can handle around 6 lbs of pressure. After that the internal pump timing changes. Thats something you don't want. Now trying to use all the pumps like you describe will kill the injection system and... If you try to push thru the mechanical pump it will cause the diaphram in it to fail... Then the oil gets all the diesel in it. That will ruin the bearings on the crank. So its best to run a holey red type electric or the oem mechanical pump but not both or a combo of others. A pump with 4 to 6 lbs pressure is all you require.
