Did a search here and couldn't find much in the way of information or an answer. Haven't gone through the entire CP3 conversion thread, but that's a lot of reading for a simple question so forgive me if it's been covered before. Perhaps this will better index the topic for future searches.
There are some pretty good deals on CP3 pumps in my local area. Lots of diesel truck guys sell them cheap as they modify their trucks. Wouldn't you know it, first one I saw was $150, and thought that was the going price. Unfortunately that isn't quite the case.
At any rate, the local second hand market is well below the cost of purchase and shipping from some of the trusted suppliers here so I'm wondering what (if any) differences there are to the Duramax and Cummins CP3 pumps when installing on our CJAA engines? There's the sprocket swap, what else? Anything that NEEDS to be refurbished, where others are suggested or opportune before installation? Any bench tests one can do to discern what kind of preventative maintenance is required?
