The FASS
Duramax Series Pump is very similar in design to the FASS Dodge Direct
Replacement Pump, except it was created for the General Motors Duramax V-8
engine released in their light- and medium-duty trucks. Because Duramax trucks
are not built with a stock lift pump that pulls fuel to the truck’s tank, the
system constantly introduces air and vapor into the fuel. By installing the
FASS Duramax Series Pump, your truck uses this pusher-styled pump to supply
fuel to the engine. As a result, the vacuum effect that is naturally created by
your truck is mostly eliminated. Consequently, your fuel system will then have
significantly reduced air and vapor.
The Duramax
Series Pump was designed to flow at approximately 70 Gallons per Hour at 10
PSI. FASS recommends this pump for users that are happy with stock power
applications. However, owners with very slight horsepower modifications can
also use the Duramax Series Pump. Owners that desire a fuel pump for moderate
to extreme power applications for their light-duty truck should explore the
FASS Titanium or Platinum Series.
FASS has made
available two models of the FASS Duramax Pump compatible with two different
versions of the GM Duramax. The first model is compatible with 6.6L Duramax
LB7, LLY, LBZ, LMM 2500, and LMM 3500 from 2001 to 2010.The second model works
with the newer 2011-2012 6.6L Duramax LML 2500 and LML 3500.
The FASS
Duramax Series Pump will help your machine in conditions that are either
extremely cold or hot. By using a heavy-duty motor that delivers a high torque
to gear ratio, cold weather starts become seamless. In warmer climates, the Duramax
Series Pump's heavy-duty motor has the strength to process B-20 and B-50 fuels.
This means that the FASS Duramax Series Pump will operate effectively
regardless of the temperature of your environment.
The
instruction manual for the Duramax Series Pump recommends using a fuel pressure
gauge in order to identify the stage of your fuel filter’s life. Using this
gauge will help you prevent engine damage. The manual also mentions that
increased fuel flow may create problems with your stock fuel module. Using the
included FASS suction tube kit with the Duramax Series Pump can prevent these
problems.
The FASS
Duramax Series Pump comes standard with a four-year warranty, so long as the
manufacturer receives all relevant warranty information during the first 30
days after purchase.

So could this pump be a replacement for my stock fuel pump that just went out in my Duramax? I haven't really done many modifications to the power train and I was hoping to start somewhere.
