When I clicked on this thread I was 100% expecting it to be about facet pumps due to this recurring image lol

 

[ROCK HARVEY]

To answer OP, when I needed a pump a year or two ago neither Russ or Justin had them in stock. I checked daily for a month or two until I got to where I couldn’t wait anymore. I searched for recommendations among the GM 6.2 crowd because they also use DB2 pumps, and ended up using badger diesel. The website is crap and outdated, but if you call the guy he will answer and the price and turnaround we’re good. I think I paid $650 + core, the truck is running good.

I would also recommend looking for agricultural repair shops. There are tons of tractors that run DB rotary pumps and lots of shops that repair them. I didn’t think to go this route when I needed a pump, but I’ll expand my search next time.

if you’re wanting to go with Justin but there’s none in stock, I’d definitely reach out to him. I recently spoke with him over email for a few weeks and ordered a RD2-90 from him. Finally went into the truck today and I’ll say he’s earned a permanent customer in me. Truck runs so much better now and I won’t buy a pump from anybody else going forward unless I absolutely have too.

 

[Oldstock14]

I’ll also add, Justin confirmed to me that he only uses genuine Stanadyne parts in his pumps. Don’t know about other rebuilders.

I was really hoping to keep my 60k pump and get it rebuilt, as I figured it is less worn than one rebuilt several times, however Justin said no to that, so 90 cc or turbo spec?
no head studs bone stock 93 7.3
Fwiw are we talking Mel's Conestoga diesel pumps or the new moose company?

 

[Nero]

Conestoga renamed to moose diesel.
It says right on Justin's site run at your own risk without studs on the 90cc pump. Even moose says that on their website. If you question it, get an 80, unless you plan to head stud?

I quit using DFIS after 40+ years because the last few pumps had hot start issues, and all I got from GR*^t was,,,, "its in spec". Apparrently 30k is in sales didnt mean anything to them

 

[The_Josh_Bear]

That's REDICULOUS. No wonder you made the switch!

I’m running a 90 on my 6.9, studded. It’s not turbo’d yet and it blows smoke like an 1800s locomotive. I have to baby it so I don’t see higher than 1200 degrees. Gonna turn it down a flat and see where I’m at. If you’re not running studs, Id just go with an 80, imo. I’d rather be getting ‘too little fuel’ and not melt pistons then run too much and accidentally do some damage cuz I wasn’t watching the pyro like a hawk. That’s my two cents.

True
Went there on the 88 with banks and a junior.

Turn it down two flats. You should be right where you want to be
