Fuel Pressure Regulator 7.3L

Features and Benefits

The FASS Fuel Pressure Regulator is for use on Dodge, GM, and Ford 7.3L applications. Engineered from quality 6061 T-6 billet aluminum stock and features full adjustability from 0 to 100 PSI in the FASS diesel fuel system. Contains a 1/8″ MPT boost compression port which grants better fuel pressure regulation from idle to full throttle. This fuel pressure regulator is constructed with 1/2 inch MPT inlet and outlet ports.

Some of the benefits of installing a FASS Fuel Pressure Regulator are the ability to fully adjust the fuel pressure in your FASS system, above or below what it was initially designed for. This product has a boost compensation port that allows boost pressure from the turbo to be directed to the FPR-1001 which momentarily increases the pressure the FASS system produces. When installed with the boost compensation connection this system will allow the fuel pressure and PSI to stay consistent when at open throttle without a drop off in pressure.

Four year warranty!

The FASS Fuel Pressure Regulator is covered by the manufacturers four year warranty after you fill out and return the warranty card. This the only fuel pressure regulator to be covered by this type of warranty!

What is a Fuel Pressure Regulator?

A fuel pressure regulator is a device designed to uphold a consistent fuel pressure for correct fuel atomization. More fuel is going to the fuel rail that needs to go there, so a regulator preserves a certain amount of fuel pressure in the rail then returns whatever else is left to the tank.

How does it work?

Inside the regulator casing is a spring that pushes against a diaphram. The fuel pump has to generate enough fuel and enough pressure to overcome the spring pressure. The left over fuel is then sent back to the tank through the fuel line return line. When your truck is at idle, there is less pressure against the fuel coming inside the regulator because it has a vacuum hose attached to it inside the intake manifold. When you apply gas and the vacuum drops in pressure, the fuel pressure increases to let the engine access more fuel when needed.

What signs will there be when my fuel regulator is failing?

Lack of fuel pressure or excessive fuel pressure are a big tip off. There may also be black smoke or an  instant drop of fuel pressure once when your truck is turned off.

HTT Manifold

Features of the HTT Manifold

The High Tech Turbo Exhaust Manifold is to be used for 1988-1998 5.9L Dodge Cummins – 12 Valve. This is a 3 piece kit. It comes with all gasket and mounting bolts for installation. The HTT Manifold is made in the U.S. from high silicone ductile iron. It will provide for faster spool-up than the competition. The HHT Manifold will lower EGT’s and comes to you already put together at no extra charge. Unlike other manufacturers, the HTT Manifold comes with the needed mounting bolts and heater hose bracket. It also comes drilled and tapped for a 1/8 pyrometer as well as 1/4 plugs installed. This product is available 12 and 24 valve styles and is port matched for each version. The HTT Manifold is a superb replacement for a stock component or high-flow performance applications featuring a tuned, balanced flow design. One of the highlights of this kit is that this manifold flows exhaust more consistently than stock and will not be as susceptible to cracking or splitting.

How does a manifold work?

The engine intake manifold is an gathering of passages that air or a mixture of air and fuel flows from the air intake or throttle valves to the intake valve ports in a cylinder head or block. In a diesel engine with a fuel injection system, air needs to be received with slightest of pressure drops. Therefore, the intake manifold is used to disperse air or the air and fuel mixture equally to each of the cylinders  and to aid in the vaporization of the fuel. Another purpose of the exhaust manifold is to accumulate and carry exhaust gases away from the cylinders with the least amount of back pressure possible.

More horsepower, torque and towing strength

Stock exhaust manifolds are not designed to get the most power from your vehicle. The sub-par engineering of stock parts force your engine to work extra hard because it is trying to squeeze exhaust gases through a hold that is just too small. This results in wasted fuel. When you install an aftermarket component like the High Tech Turbo Exhaust Manifold, you will gain better fuel mileage and more power from your engine. Some benefits of installing a HTT Manifold is better fuel efficiency, lower exhaust temps, more horsepower and torque and better towing power.

NOS System

Added power without the headaches

The TS Performance PowerFool2 NOS System was engineered exclusively for diesel applications.  All wiring and solenoids are self contained in two boxes and are armed with all the hardware and fittings you will need for installation. The PowerFool2 NOS System takes the mystery of of Nitrous and eliminates the complications of wiring. Installation location is entirely up to you. This system gives you lots of control and choices like where you want to place your nozzles and how much nitrous you want to apply. This application works even if you haven’t yet O-ringed your heads. If you have reservations about using nitrous, this is the perfect product for you. You can enjoy the added power without having to figure out mixtures or deal with the stress that comes along with setting up a nitrous system. The TS PowerFool2 system can get you up to 300 hp and should be used in compliance with your application.

How does a NOS System work?

When nitrous oxide is heated to around 570 degrees, it separates into oxygen and nitrogen. Injecting nitrous oxide into the engine provides for far more oxygen accessible during combustion. Since you already have the oxygen, you can also inject more fuel, permitting the same engine to achieve more power. A NOS system is the easiest way to achieve a striking amount of boost to an engine.

Is nitrous oxide safe in a diesel engine?

Yes! Diesel engines are the only application that nitrous actually makes it safer to operate. Nitrous give more oxygen to a diesel engine. This works to burn more fuel somewhat like a turbo. The intensely cold nitrous offers a large amount of intercooling. The worst thing that can happen if too much nitrous is introduced to the engine is it cools the intake too much to where you lose fire and you simply have to restart your engine. The larger your engine is, the more nitrous it can handle. As stated earlier gains of up to 300 hp can be achieved but in smaller engines 150hp can be reached safely. Torque is also greatly affected. Gains of up to 1600ft. lbs. can be realized.

Dynatrac Free Spin

The Dynatrac Free-Spin Heavy-Duty Hub Conversion Kit is for use on 2000-2008 5.9L, 6.7L Dodge Cummins, Ram 2500, 3500 – 4WD Stage 1 (ABS Included)

Features of the Dynatrac Free-spin Hub conversion kit

This kit was engineered to replace the factory unit bearings with stationary spindles for greater strength, better fuel economy, and improved performance. Included in this kit are serviceable Timken bearings, cromoly spindles, cast nodular wheel hubs, Warn premium manual locking hubs, a large 1.50″ diameter 35-spline outer axle shafts. All parts included in the Dynatrac Free-spin conversion kit are made in the U.S. and are tested for optimum consistency under extreme use. The Free-Spin system provides you with easy serviceability,  a more comfortable ride, improved steering control, better fuel economy and an extended axle drive shaft life. Manual -locking hubs cut down on wear and tear and improve fuel economy by stopping parts from rotating constantly during 2WD operation. Improves dependability by removing an unsatisfactory axle disconnection operation.

What happens when a bearing fails?

Wheel bearings are a small but very important component that don’t fail often but when they do, can cause serious problems. Not taking care of a failing bearing can result in damage to your truck or could trigger an accident caused by a loss of control of  your steering or braking system. When a wheel bearing fails, your wheel could come completely off of your vehicle while in operation. One reason for a bearing to become worn is if it is installed incorrectly or in the midst of an accident. If this does happen while driving and your wheel comes off, you will end up careening down the street scraping the bottom of your truck causing major damage and expensive repairs. Installing a Dynatrack Free-spin hub conversion kit eliminates these worries.

Why the Dynatrac Free-Spin Hub system?

Bearings are designed with a very thin or plastic cage. These are not the best quality and are used by manufacturers as a cheap way to put their vehicle together. Upgrading to a spindle design provides you with a much safer and reliable component. If  a bearing failure does occur, you are looking at towing and repair costs that can be extremely expensive. Switching to a more reliable fixed spindle hub system eliminates these worries and could save you some money.

NOTE: core charges apply on all pumps and must be returned. $1000.00 refundable core charges apply.

What is an injection pump?

An injection pump is the device that pumps fuel into the cylinders of a diesel engine. The pump is driven indirectly by the crankshaft timing belt that also operates the camshaft. It turns at half crankshaft speed in a conventional four-stroke engine. The fuel is injected a small amounts just before top center of that cylinders compression stroke.

What are the benefits of an injection system?

One benefit is a smoother and more reliable engine response while operating a quick throttle change. Your engine will start better in any sort of weather. It will also increase your trucks fuel efficiency. Your engines air and fuel mixture determines engine performance, emissions, and fuel economy. Fuel injection systems can react quickly to sudden demands like a high throttle, and injects the correct amount of fuel to meet the engines needs. The BD Diesel Performance Fuel Injection Pump is a multi-point system that delivers a more precise and even mass of fuel to each cylinder than a carburetor does. This equals cleaner emissions. Fuel injection also increases fuel efficiency.

The TS Performance MPHD Cummins ISX – ISM Heavy Truck chip includes easy installation and Plug and Play features. There is no cutting or splicing of wires required. It also comes with a lifetime guarantee!

What is a chip tuner?

The MPHD Cummins ISX is a chip tuner. Chip tuning is basically when you change or tweak an EPROM chip in a vehicles ECU to attain more power, cleaner emissions or better fuel economy. More modern vehicles  can be tuned by updating their software through an interface like OBDII, sometimes called ECU tuning. Performance advantages are gained by adjusting the ignition timing advance. Higher timing usually equals higher performance.

Re-set the ECU Map for better performance

You can also change the ECU map. The main reason you would do this if if you have bolt on modifications on your vehicle such as an aftermarket intake or exhaust system. This can change the way your engine works. If you do not re-map your fuel tables, some of the gains you are expecting from your add-on’s may not do their best work.

Need gauges for your Cummins ISX?

OC DIESEL offers a wide array of gauges for your ISX engine! One of our best sellers is the ISSPRO EV2 Pyrometer Gauge 0-1600F.

ISSPRO gauges feature LED lighting with flat lenses. The are operated by a step driven motor and are all electric. These attractive gauges come with all needed components for installation including the lead wire and thermocouple as well as weather pack connectors.Boost and temp gauges include the sensors and wire harness to connect the sensor to the gauge. No amplifier box is needed. All colors and fonts match your OEM gauges.

What is a pyrometer?

A pyrometer is an instrument used for reading exhaust temperatures which gets a signal from a thermocouple installed into the exhaust manifold. This signal notifies the driver of any problems far before a water temperature gauge would. Diesel owners use a pyrometer to discover engine problems and drive more efficiently, adding life to their engine and cutting down on fuel expenditures.

How does it work?

High temperatures are the most common cause of damage to your engine. We add aftermarket products to our vehicles to combat this heat such as an upgraded exhaust system. The pyrometer is a gauge that will watch exhaust temps and informs the operator of any early signs of trouble. A pyrometer will tell you when there is something wrong far better than any other device or component. If you are dealing with a clogged injector or a cylinder or piston that is failing, a pyrometer will alert you to a change in temperature. The reason for this is because pyrometers measure internal thermos-dynamics of your engine. Benefits of installing a pyrometer are more effective and lengthened life of your engine, lower emissions and an early warning to potential problems.

Carbon Intake Manifold

More power, performance, and lower EGT’s

The CFM+ Carbon Intake Manifold brings the coolest air flow available to your Dodge Cummins engine. CFM+ uses the most advanced engineering technology and the lastest in design and testing software. The high temperature materials used by CFM+ permit cooled air from your intercooler to be insulated from engine heat. High volumes of cooled air equals more power, performance, lower EGT’s and improved fuel economy.

What is an intake manifold?

Intake manifolds are installed right to the top of your engine. They are held by long threaded bolts that make for a very secure attachment. An intake manifold provides the structural base for a fuel induction system. Most are made of steel or aluminum. Steel is seen more in high performance vehicles. Intake manifolds create an air tight seal to the engine they are attached to. They are made to align with the intake ports on your engine. Intake manifolds have a series of ports that funnel incoming air and gas into the engine cylinders. Air and fuel are combined in the carburetor or fuel injection system and flows into the intake manifold that funnels the mixture and puts it into the cylinders.

Factory vs. CFM+ Intake Manifold

Size and shape make a difference in how your intake manifold utilizes performance and horsepower. Factory manifolds are flat with narrow manifold parts. This type of design restricts fuel flow and dosen’t help toward achieving better performance. CMF+ Carbon intake manifolds have wider and longer ports with a higher rise. This equates to an increase in fuel flow and speed into your engine. This is what creates gains in horsepower and performance.

Features of the Recon Winch

The Recon Winch  has all you are looking for if you are an enthusiast in mudding, off-roading, rock climbing,or  salvage and recovery. Recons top of the line winches offer you the highest quality in line speed and unparalleled pulling power. With a lightening quick 28 feet per minute line speed and a pulling capacity of 117,500 pounds, you will never be left stranded out on the trail. The Recon Winch features automatic in-the-drum brakes and a sliding ring gear clutch.

The gear ratio of the Recon Winch is set at 358.4:1 for an increase in torque and a 7.0hp series wound motor. The cable line is constructed of aircraft grade steel and measures out to 1/16″ diameter by 92ft. length. The Recon Winch is covered by a lifetime warranty.

How does a winch work?

The winch is powered by the vehicles battery. The motor gives power to the gear mechanism that turns the winch drum and winds the steel wire rope. The winch drum is the cylinder that the rope feeds onto. It is driven by the motor and drive train.  The reduction gear transforms the winch motor power into a massive pulling force. The brake is automatically applied to the winch drum when the motor stops and there is a load on the rope.

The brake prevents the winch from letting out line and this holds the vehicle in place. The clutch then lets the user manually unfasten the spooling drum from the gear train letting the drum spool freely. Operating the clutch bolts the winch drum back onto the gear train. Another feature of the Recon Winch is the control box. The control box gets its power from your trucks battery. Solenoids convert power to the motor, letting the user change direction of the winch drum rotation.  The remote control plugs into the winch control box. This enables an operator to control the winch direction not to mention gives you the ability to operate the winch at a safe distance.
