I just picked up another cp3 pump for cheap for my LB7 .. I need some opinions ... Would it be a advantage to run two stock cp3 pumps or should i send one away and just one run a bigger single pump ... Any imput will be helpful

They will fuel your truck enough to bend your rods lol you will have no problem keeping pressure with duals.

I say stay away From modded pumps bc they can be really touchy to tune and they are not as reliable. Sure people have had great results with them. There is also a lot of people that gained nothing but headaches from them. One of them being me :(

With bigger injectors, you can run less pulse width. Less is a good thing. I'd go with a bigger turbo before I would go with bigger injectors. Just to keep everything nice and cool. (EGT's)

2 stock pumps should support about 1000rwhp (if pumps are in good shape). Let me know if you need a kit WITHOUT the pump.

They are harder to time plus they seem to fail more often.

What do you mean by time?

Also less timing which will help keep the fuel spray in the bowl where it needs to be.

Ive had both. I had a II 42% by its self and it ran great. Now i have a stock one with the modded one and the throttle response is way better and it does feel faster.

Is there anything to be gained by putting a weaker one paired with a stock one (untill I've recovered from the lift pump, dual cp3 install kit, etc).

ok thanks guys ima send this pump away and get it checked before i go sticking it out cause the guy i got it from said he was getting fuel in the oil so im guessing it could be leaking from the shaft seal maybe ...
