    mechanical injection pump swap?

    Well the grey ghost lives again, I went ahead and bought a new ip from ss diesel supply, very nice people by the way, it primed very easily and fired right up within 10 minutes, it actually fired up before I got the driver's side lines tightened. Now just to keep it up and running...

    Considering Air lift on 1500 Suburban. Thoughts?
