Same here, those are a great deal for something like this.I was hoping he picked up some Prothe nozzles to be honest.
2.5" is the diameter I am using.What diameter exhaust you running up there in Turner?
While I agree intentionally rolling coal is not cool and way to many d bags are rolling around in jacked up trucks blowing smoke on priuses, and that is a major reason the epa has gotten all over the diesel industry, not all diesel trucks are so easily smoke free and make power. Though there are ways of doing it, most people are not interested in spending the cash to do it. Besides the fact that there are benefits of diesels producing excessive smoke.Because smoke is obnoxious, rude, and harmful to others. The idiots who drive around in lifted pickups with garbage cans out of the bed spewing huge amounts of black smoke is likely the reason we need to have DPFs on our cars now and destroyed the diesel image. Really pisses me off.
There is really no upside having a diesel produce excessive smoke. It does have a bunch of downsides.
A proper setup can produce plenty of power smoke free.
My favourite is the trucks idling at a light throwing so much smoke they block out the sun.
Most around here aren't a light haze.My 24v has relatively small injectors and hazes at idle. How am I supposed to get around that?
Hmmmm.... He's BBB accredited. Go Figure ?These ought to do you well

Advertising for the greenies.What's the deal with the hating on smoke. I know smoke is wasted fuel in some cases but if you want power smoke is,going to be there obviously.
Bigger injection pump elements. More violent cam in the IP. Marine pistons to match the 155 degree injectors you may have installed.My 24v has relatively small injectors and hazes at idle. How am I supposed to get around that?
And all those modifications aren't very common and very expensive. I would be ahead to sell my truck and go buy a common rail but I want an older truck for a number of reasons.Bigger injection pump elements. More violent cam in the IP.

ETA: freshened up delivery valves
Many different solutions for many possible problems. Realistically, a little smoke doesn't hurt anything, the A'hats that do it on purpose cause a bad image for those that end up with a little bit of smoke from mechanical limitations.
235,000 miles on the truck. 8,000 on the injection pump. 3,000 on the injectors. The truck definitely runs smoother with new injectors but 7x12s aren't the cleanest.It is a 99, how many miles on the injectors and truck? It may benefit from a refreshed set. I know my 12V cleaned up some at idle with fresh injectors.
You asked how to get around it.And all those modifications aren't very common and very expensive. I would be ahead to sell my truck and go buy a common rail but I want an older truck for a number of reasons.
Huh, I thought I heard somewhere that the 24v trucks came with a P pump.There is basically one company that has an upgraded vp44. And that flows 150% over a stock pump. That isn't going to help clean my truck up. Never mind the fact it doesn't play nice with pressure/timing programmers and isn't a pump to daily drive with. The life of the pump is greatly shortened due to everything working harder. Also everyone forget vp44 trucks. The design of the pump sucks. If you want to make power you either buy a common rail, p pump a 24v, or just buy a 12v. So if you know someone who makes upgraded pumps or tweaks them let me know. Good like finding someone who will do it for cheaper than swapping to a p pump.
