Joining the Diesel world
It looks like I am getting rid of my 2008 F250 with the V10 and getting a new 2016 F350 Diesel. Can you kind folks give me some advice where I can go looking for information that I will need in order...

The CP4 is designed for Ultra Low Sulphur diesel whereas the CP3 was designed for Low Suphur diesel so perhaps if I had a CP3 pump with the associated injectors that are prone to failure I would consider running a diesel additive.
I have 103k miles and my truck makes better fuel economy more than ever so I don't foresee an issue anytime soon.
The CP4 was introduced in 2003 and was "designed as a radial-piston pump, the CP4 is leaner, simpler and more cost-efficient than the CP3" <-- Boch's words frome their "Milestones in Common Rail Development" brochure. This of course was 3 years before the EPA proposed switch to ultra low sulphar diesel in 2006.
Copy/pasted from your same source:
2007 marked the series production
of the first third-generation Common
Rail system with a maximum injection
pressure of 2,000 bar.
In addition the CP4 has a DLC coating to support the ULSD.
The CP3 was in 2001, the CP4 was in 2003, and the CP4.2 with the higher 2,000 bar was in 2007.
