Does anyone know what the differences are, if any, between BDP and Swamps electric fuel systems for the OBS trucks? My truck has BDP stage 1 injectors. I know the BDP system is good for stage two's, but I don't know anything about the Swamp kit.

I can't tell you the difference between the two, but I can tell you how good BDP pump is as I just installed one. Truck runs significantly better with the electric pump, smoother idle, better throttle response, and no more leaks in the engine valley, aloha.
watermanh, does the truck seems faster? how long did it take to install? was it difficult? would you say its worth the $1000? i wonder if its a worthwhile mod for just stock injectors or just easier/cheaper to fix the mechanical pump as it breaks/leaks. i am pretty close to pullin the trigger on this mod myself. thanks

Not sure of the difference, but when I originally posted this, Swamps system was $750. It was alot cheaper than the BDP system, that's why I was asking about differences. Now the Swamps setup is $900.

The quality of Beans system is excellent and after talking with Beans during the install I am confident that if something were to go wrong BEAN would stand behind his product.
I am not so sure others would be so fast to back up their product.
I emailed swamp as mentioned in there somewhere...no response...made my own

Thegreg92,
Yes the truck does seem to run faster/better. Installation took 5 days @ 3hrs per day after work. Should have been quicker but I had problems with a fitting that is supplied for the drivers side head. Bean says this fitting is only for 97 models. In the end I used the stock fitting and location for this location. Definitely worth the money. I have a CA model thus changing the fuel pump is a real PITA, thus when my 2nd pump only lasted 35K I decided I was not going to do this again, aloha.

I too am very happy with the support I have gotten from Bean. He showed extreme patience with me when I was telling him that my chip wasn't working. He kept telling me that I didn't have the PCM clean enough, when it looked clean to me. I was sure I had a faulty chip. Sure enough, after a super thorough job, I haven't had a problem since and that's been over a year. I don't know anything about Swamps, it's just that with the kit they offer it initially was quite a bit cheaper than Beans. Now I think I'll just stick with getting Beans setup.

Bean's fuel system does use a Super Duty pump. I have had Bean's fuel system for almost 2 years with no problems. The kit is very well made and put together.
