I ha ve a very basic question about this idea.

Fuel = Power?

What I mean by this is...

The stock P7x pump went on an engine rated at 135HP / 300ft.lbs.
The volume of the engine was nearly six liters.

The 603 is rated for..dare I say, 141 hp?

Doesn't this constitute a "downgrade" until pump mechanics are upgraded for higher output?

But Oh-Ho. Whats this? Only rated for ~200ft.lbs. of torque.

What is different here? Would this pump create more power on this engine with no modifications?

And at what point do the stock injectors become too small? Drill and tap the head for larger injectors?
