We don't sell or really recommend pumps (since we're not in that business), but we do work with Bob Riley at Dieselsite. He sells the Adrenaline pump which we've found to be a really decent pump at a good price. That should help with mid-high demand BUT.......

Your REAL issue (as well as everyone who owns a stock-ish 99-03 7.3L) is the injectors. The split shot design is good for idle noise and emissions....but HELL on high pressure oil. As the injectors start to wear, they "use" more oil. Mine are at 241K miles and as I have mentioned elsewhere....anything over 3.4 mS of pulsewidth and I am running 2000 PSI max. I never really NEED the power, so for now, the injectors work just fine (save for low-temperature starts) since I can't afford a good set of singles right now.
