If you're looking to upgrade your fuel system, the aFe Power DFS780 is a solid choice for your Ram diesel truck. I’ve had my hands on this setup for a while now, and I can tell you, it’s a game changer. The clear high-impact polycarbonate sight glass lets you visually inspect the fuel, which is a nice touch. No more guessing if everything’s flowing smoothly.
One of the standout features is the helical bronze spur gears. Unlike steel gears, these are a bit more forgiving when it comes to contaminants. Plus, they run quieter than the straight-cut gears you might find in other systems. It’s a subtle but noticeable difference, especially if you’re used to the noise of traditional setups.
The billet 6061-T6 aluminum manifold is another win. It eliminates those pesky porosity issues you often get with cast aluminum. You won’t have to worry about weak spots or leaks. And speaking of durability, the marine-grade motor is built to withstand dust and even powerful water jets. So, whether you’re off-roading or just cruising, this motor won’t let you down.
Installation? Super straightforward. The plug & play setup means you’re not cutting or modifying your stock fuel lines. The supplied harness connects directly to your battery using Deutsch weather-proof connectors. It’s designed for easy return to stock if you ever need to go that route.
Another great feature is the fuel pressure gauge port. It’s a 1/8 NPT port, so you can keep an eye on your fuel pressure with an external gauge. This can be a lifesaver when it comes to monitoring performance. And those O.E. quality Viton seals? They’re compatible with both diesel and biodiesel, which is a big plus for those of us who like to go green.
With a flow rating of 187 GPH at 18-20 psi, this system really delivers. The contoured CNC machining of the manifold passages enhances flow, reducing pressure drop due to restrictions. And let’s not forget the direct bolt-on steel mounting bracket that uses existing holes to secure it to the frame. It’s heavy-duty and designed to last.
Just a heads up, though—this system isn’t currently CARB exempt, so if you’re in California, you’ll need to look elsewhere. But for those of us with Ram 2500 (2011-2012 & 2021) and Ram 3500 (2011-2012) trucks, this is a fantastic upgrade.
