Fuel System Overview for Hemi swap - DIYHEMI Low Buck Hemi Truck

[@jjmonty8090]

My vote is for low buk Ram

[@SUBLIMEparts]

Thanks for the love brother. We definitely see the truck being the cooler one to bring.

Take the Truck

[@anthonylara4874]

Just subscribed, have an 87 d150 I wanna swap out.

[@georgecolbert3247]

You're better off switching tanks to one from a 92-93 that uses the plastic screw on ring versus the hose clamp style that breaks. The newer model also uses a higher psi pump. I think its 46psi versus the 15psi unit. The older one tends to leak off pressure when not running.

[@dubjay3779]

Do you have a video on swapping the pumps in the pump basket?

[@Joyboy13257]

You guys are brave working on the fuel pump module like that. Had mine shatter in my 89 W250 and it took a week to find one 4 states away. Luckily the one in my 89 Shelby Dakota was in good shape to reuse and for both fuel pump modules I used a kit from Quantum Fuel Systems

That fuel filter is a life saver when doing these hemi swaps

[@jjmonty8090]

Y’all r awesome. Keep going

[@Rhodesy-jv2xx]

Take the truck! 100%

[@DependableAutoTruck]

on hemi installs where mounting the a/c compressor is a problem like with the 2nd gen has anyone thought about running a toyota prius ac compressor doesn't have a belt its electric can be mounted anywhere you like.

[@markmissildine961]

Do you have a link for the fuel pump

[@D150Nation]

I have been jonesin for a new video on the Low Buck HEMI Truck!

[@ephraimschofield]

I vote for the truck!

[@boostinturbskee5385]

The d150 has to go. This is the most exciting project y’all have for me. Of course I’m biased because I have a 88 w100 I want to swap.

[@chaddavis7228]

Amen I've got an 89

[@averyely9741]

Amen, I have a 89 W-150 Ramcharger

[@matthewv4748]

My 87 d150 has a mechanical pump. How would that work? Would I need a whole new Sending unit?

[@kirbywinters1291]

I think you have a few options 1. get a tank from a 91-93 truck and use a Holley drop in replacement fuel sending unit and fuel pump. 2. Get a tank from a 91-93 use the oem sending unit with a aftermarket pump installed in place of the oem one and use the c5 corvette regulator like they did in this video. 3. Holley sells a complete replacement tank you could use that and their sending unit which is the more expensive option. 4. You could try using what you have already in the truck and putting a different pump in your OEM sending unit.

[@danielbuckner2167]

Tire dates started being mandatory in 2000. You have 22+ year old tires.

[@SUBLIMEparts]

No, I think they are just not typical US DOT labeled (oval with week and year of production). The only thing we saw called out 6120 or 6121 which could be June 1st of that year, but that’s not typical tire nomenclature. They are odd for sure.

[@danielbuckner2167]

@@SUBLIMEparts Well if they weren't produced for the US market or legally imported then who knows. Maybe driven in on a different vehicle?

[@Mynextproject_74]

Take the truck to the NNN! It would be great to meet you there! I am trying to grow my channel to be there too!

[@sethster70]

I’m partial but I’d take the d150

[@sethster70]

Plus the trucks probably lighter

[@Allenpricemusic]

You guys interested in buying a used hemi with an 8 speed transmission with transfer case?

[@SUBLIMEparts]

I mean. We would never say never. Send us what you got. [e-mail]

[@BigBlock402]

So if you get a callout from another truck you must bring it to NNN. I know a truck to race.

[@SUBLIMEparts]

We will graciously accept call outs, even if it’s obvious that we could get our butts handed to us 🤣

[@BigBlock402]

@@SUBLIMEparts for me its not about winning its all in fun and putting on a show for the many great people and fans. Besides my 64 C10 isnt fast by no means it just sounds like it. Kinda like an H-pipe and Flowmasters on a 86 Mustang GT..😜😁😁

[@SUBLIMEparts]

@@BigBlock402 we fully agree with everything you just said 😁

[@MongrelsGarage]

Oh that is awesome news that you are going to the No Name Nationals! I plan on being there as well, be great to have the opportunity to meet you guys! My vote is take both if you can...D150 if you can only take one. Tow the 300 there with the D150!

[@chaddavis7228]

I vote for the truck to show off more of what yall do

[@BigBlock402]

The D150 would be so much cooler than the 300.

[@westernapache1700]

Even easier is use an external pump with the corvette filter. That’s what I did. Pulls fuel from the pickup in the tank as easily as the mechanical pump did. Don’t have to drop the tank. Easy to change pump if you ever need to.

[@SUBLIMEparts]

We typically do not do external fuel pumps, for several reasons. 1. Being mounted in the tank is quieter, as the fuel itself is and insulator/sound dampener. 2. Reduced stress on the pump by not having to suck fluid up and out of the fuel tank. Typically there is drain back and temporary starvation of the fuel pump. This doesn’t happen if you use a sumped fuel cell, but it does with stock tanks. 3. A submersed fuel pump inside the tank is actually cooled by the fuel around it, which prolongs pump life and increases reliability.

[@westernapache1700]

@@SUBLIMEparts My fuel pump is a Bosch pump that was made for a late 90s Ford E150 van. Mounted on the frame in rubber and foam. Can't hear it at all during key on prime - and especially not when running with the flowmasters. The inline pumps run fuel around the pump motor to cool it - remember many OE applications used inline pumps - so no worries there. My pump is angled downward with the feed coming in from the top - so the inlet stays full of fuel. When I key on, the gauge near the engine jumps up to 60psi instantly even after setting for days. The feed line is only a foot long, so I'm not worried about the short time it might take to pull fuel up if some does happen to drain back. I ran the same setup in my 91YJ with a 2010 4.7L in it for years. Off road, sand dunes, day long highway trips, towing. No problems at all. Super easy to change if there is ever a problem. I wouldn't think twice about it. Just saying that there is an easier way that works great.

[@randysoong6129]

Thanks for all the great info for us little guys. My vote is to take the truck

[@D150Nation]

Thank you for the video on this, I’m gonna need to do this soon on my Ramcharger. Of course I will need longer lines Where did you get the fuel lines??

[@paulpasternak2026]

How's progress on later hemi quick harness?

[@SUBLIMEparts]

We are working on 14 and up car Hemi as we speak. It’s actually almost done. Maybe a month? Then 12&13. Then 08-11. These are for car Hemis by the way.

[@shuckarelli]

Well I just picked up a nice 05 hemi and trans and I removed every single piece of the wiring harness and the throttle pedal my holley mounts showed up yesterday so looks like I have a decision to make I have a 90 single cab long bed v6 dakota and I'm looking at a 93 short cab short bed dakota but it's a 2.5l, I also picked up a 3.73 lsd 8.8 disk rear I want to just get it in and running. I can use the stock 05 fuse box and just clip the wires going to the accessories I'm not using right? Is there a list out there I can download to help me figure out what I actually need instead of what I want! When I started this project a couple of months ago things were going great now I'm really limited on funds so I'm just looking to make it reliable so I can drive it daily until things turn around any help would be great!!

[@higginsmoto8728]

I have a question! Hopefully you can help. I have a 1982 D150 with a 1993 5.9L 360 engine currently. Going to do a 5.7 Hemi swap soon but have a question about the fuel pump you guys are running. My current fuel pump does not look anything like your sending unit. I know you replaced the pump with the GSS340 but what top piece did you use to get the proper ports for the fuel lines. My current pump does not have any of those options just one port/line running from the tank to the engine intake.

[@gypsymustrick]

What did you use to upgrade the fuel pump with

[@SUBLIMEparts]

Walbro 255

[@Will-No-Co]

Take the truck. And strip that 300.

[@Adam4KU]

What fuel pump did you use to swap the stock one in the sending unit?

[@SUBLIMEparts]

Walbro 255 LPH aka TI 255LPH (Part number GSS340)

[@nathanbuckles843]

where did you get the fuel line and fittings?

[@SUBLIMEparts]

Fuel line is standard -6an multi fuel compatible from Most speed shops. The 90 degree fuel quick disconnects were only found on Amazon and eBay. The big speed shops did not carry them. We will post links to those fittings soon

[@danielbuckner2167]

For actual racing the 300 would be better but nobody cares about those so why race a donor car? Take the D100. It's better for the Optics.

[@lonniewilson7]

D 150 Please wait 10 more years on 300 C
