Jody, what kind of pumps & regulators do you run? Do the pumps you run use an internal bypass of any kind? Curious. I've always understood that with dead heads pumps don't last as long due to heat, and fuel pressure at WOT isn't stable. I've also understood that fluctuations of 4-5 lbs at WOT is in fact due to hammering, and to steer away from dead head systems. I personally have only used bypass styles to avoid these kinds of issues, and have never done a dead head, because of my understanding, but maybe I need to rethink my ways?
