belt driven hpop

[under pressure]

I'm just wondering why we haven't seen a real hpop on a drive bracket like an accessory.
The potential would be unlimited !

There's really no need to reinvent the wheel

 

[Lowdown89]

Yeah with the options out now, there really isn't a need to try something like that

There are a few out for the 6.0, maybe they would work for the 7.3 also.

I thought hrt was running something like this on his pulling truck back in the day, I could be wrong

 

[Groomzybanshee]

Would be stupid.

Would be stupid.

Excellent insight! :swordfight:

The big single pumps make this a non issue now.

Options ? Not really
Imagine a pump that just needed a smaller drive pully to increase pressure and volume.
Seems as much R&D that's been done to try and reinvent the stock pump, these pumps have been around for a very long time.
Bracket
Connections
Pullies
Belt
Hoses
...and a block off plate for the valley
a little ingenuity and we'd have a pump that's easy to service, easy to upgrade.
Stupid just isn't in my vocabulary.....

I think it would be a great option IMO.

I'm still not sure its proven reliable, not to mention the price.

How you going to get the oil to the pump? Where are you going to get the oil from? Why belt drive something when it's already gear driven???? Pointless.

 

[Fordguy100]

Gear driven, sure. But going to belt driven (along with deleting the regular HPOP) seems like a step backwards except for the easy serviceability of it.

Or Instead of a Belt Driven HPOP, you could just do the simple job of converting it to common rail and get rid of the HPOP all together.

That might be my next step. I'm gonna run my hybrids, my srp1.1 and start piecing together parts for a longblock with billet rods and bedplate. Then start studying.

A little ingunity my friend.

Belt drive on a blower or Harley pointless. The valley gear driven pump was some ones good idea in the 70s..... Since the gear was there in the IDI, was just easier to leave the design and work from there.

Either way, I'd be interested.

I seen a kit out for that, $ 20k iirc.

In the matter of deleting the hpop, CR is the only way to go. Buuuut.. since you seem stuck on it, build it

If you really want to do it get the stye pump that's on a gen3 and build a bracket and run it off a belt. Like warren has for the 6.0

you would need to build a ipr block or keep the stock pump and feed into it like a gen3. Looks like he just pulls oil from the pan and lets the pump suck it up.
