Current Ford 6.7L fitment
S&S Diesel Motorsport currently lists its DCR conversion for 2011–2025 Ford F-250 through F-750 6.7L Power Stroke trucks. A-1 confirms the exact vehicle and kit by VIN before parts are ordered.
Ford 6.7L Power Stroke • DCR conversion • CP4 repair
CP4-to-DCR conversion installation for DFW and North Texas.
A-1 installs DCR conversions on supported Ford 6.7L Power Stroke trucks, evaluates the fuel system before parts are ordered, and handles preventive upgrades or complete repair planning after a CP4 failure.
Real work from A-1
DCR conversions and disaster-prevention work from A-1.
The 6.7L Power Stroke build shown received a KC Turbo, BD Diesel manifolds, and a DCR conversion. The S&S disaster-prevention kit shown separately retains the CP4 and is intended to redirect debris if that pump fails; it is not the same as a DCR conversion.
Diagnosis starts with the complaint
Know whether this is preventive—or a contaminated-system repair.
The right scope depends on the truck's current condition. A preventive conversion and a repair after a CP4 has spread metal are not the same job. A-1 documents what is found, explains the required repair, and confirms the complete plan before installation.
Call with the year, make, model, engine, mileage, warning lights or codes, and a clear description of when the problem happens.
What A-1 can inspect and service
A repair plan matched to the vehicle and the problem.
Preventive conversion
A preventive conversion replaces the CP4 before a confirmed failure. The truck is identified and the fuel system is checked so the installation plan matches its condition and current configuration.
Repair after CP4 failure
If a CP4 has already produced metal, installing a new pump alone is not the complete repair. The affected rails, injectors, lines, tank, supply system, filters, and related components must be evaluated for contamination.
Manufacturer-directed installation
The conversion is installed with the required lines, fittings, seals, and model-year-specific parts. Pump timing, cleanliness, priming, leak checks, and post-installation verification are handled as part of the approved job.
No conversion tune required
The manufacturer states that the DCR conversion matches the stock pump output curve and does not require an engine calibration change. Existing tuning or modifications are still documented before installation.
Insurance-claim documentation
When a covered contamination or fuel-system loss is involved, A-1 can document the findings, prepare an itemized repair plan, and communicate with the insurer. The carrier controls coverage and payment approval.

How service works
Clear steps before parts are ordered.
- 01Confirm the truck and goal
Send the year, Ford model, mileage, last eight digits of the VIN, current modifications, symptoms, and whether the request is preventive or follows a failure.
- 02Inspect the fuel system
A-1 checks the complaint and available evidence for contamination, metal, supply-side problems, or other damage that would change the repair scope.
- 03Build the complete repair plan
The estimate separates the DCR conversion from any required cleaning, failed-system components, maintenance items, or customer-selected supporting work.
- 04Obtain customer and provider approval
A-1 confirms the customer-approved scope and, when applicable, submits documentation for insurer or warranty-administrator review before covered work begins.
- 05Install and verify
The approved system is installed, primed, checked for leaks, and reviewed for commanded and actual fuel-pressure operation before the truck is returned.
Common questions
Useful answers before you schedule.
Who installs CP4-to-DCR conversions in DFW?
A-1 Auto & Diesel Repair installs CP4-to-DCR conversions on supported Ford 6.7L Power Stroke trucks at its Alvarado shop. A-1 serves Fort Worth, Arlington, Mansfield, Burleson, Cleburne, Dallas, and the wider DFW and North Texas area.
Which Ford trucks can use the DCR conversion?
S&S Diesel Motorsport currently lists the conversion for 2011–2025 Ford F-250 through F-750 trucks with the 6.7L Power Stroke. Product coverage can change, so A-1 verifies the VIN, model year, and current manufacturer application before ordering.
Can I install a DCR after the CP4 has already failed?
Yes, but the rest of the fuel system must first be evaluated for metal and debris. A failed-system repair can require cleaning or replacing contaminated components before the DCR is installed so debris does not damage the new pump.
Does a DCR conversion require a tune?
The manufacturer states that its Ford 6.7L DCR conversion does not require an engine calibration change. A-1 still records existing tuning and modifications because they can affect diagnosis, build planning, and warranty terms.
Is a DCR conversion the same as a CP4 disaster-prevention kit?
No. A DCR conversion replaces the CP4 with a different high-pressure pump design. A disaster-prevention kit keeps the CP4 and is intended to limit where debris travels if that pump fails. A-1 can discuss which approach fits the truck and goal.
Will insurance pay for a CP4-to-DCR conversion?
A-1 can recommend the conversion when it is appropriate, provide technical information and an itemized estimate, and request authorization as part of an eligible claim. The insurer decides whether it will cover the conversion, an equivalent repair amount, or neither; the customer approves any non-covered difference.
Can customers travel to A-1 for a DCR conversion?
Yes. DCR work can be a good fit for customers traveling from across Texas when the vehicle, parts, repair scope, scheduling, and transportation plan are confirmed before the trip.
