Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1040185 P7100 Governor Spring Kit (4000RPM) is a performance upgrade designed for Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 trucks equipped with the Bosch P7100 injection pump and the 5.9L 12-Valve Cummins engine (1994–1998). By replacing the factory governor springs with this calibrated kit, the engine’s RPM limit is raised to 4000, extending the usable powerband, reducing frequent gear shifts, and allowing higher fueling without sacrificing drivability.
This kit is an ideal mechanical performance upgrade for enthusiasts and builders looking to unlock more top-end power and improved throttle response from their P7100-equipped Cummins. Installation requires experience with P7100 mechanical governor systems and is best performed by a technician familiar with Bosch injection pumps.
