Pat is a freak in a good way... He has EXTENSIVE access to a dyno, 3 trucks, EFI dealer, a test area/track, good friend is the trans guru, he is self employed, has unlimited access to this site to bounce ideas/gleen information and a good support network in his business allowing him to play when he needs to.
To compare us mortals with day jobs and limited info/cash to him is unrealistic. As well do you really want/need that much power? I know we have 7K lb trucks and need big nutz to move it. A 650HP diesel has about 1200 lbs of torque... in 2 wheel drive all we do is blow the tires out.
Over-motored excess is the American way... I am not discouraging you really! I unfortunatley have walked this path and can say if you wanna enjoy it on the street regularly.... this isn't a turbo/trans swap and go have fun.
The days of small block swaps and a shift kit are gone when you hot rod a serious deisel.
BTW- happy 4th of July.

Like I said, this has been a HUGE reality check on me.. and i thank everyone here that has replied to my thread for their knowledge.. After MUCH discussion with some of ya'll .. and alot of thought .. If I want a Daily driver that has to pull my 5ver, but want fast.. there has to be a compromise..
Would anyone here think that a suncoast IV, ARp studs, MPI Twins, dual cp3 and an Airdog with some custom efi tuning make a reliable truck? I am really inspired by the Casper truck and the truck Brandon built to "Chase 11's"
Maybe the more accurate question i should have asked is how much power can i build reliably for my Daily driver/5th wheel puller/weekend drag racer?
again.. any ideas, parts lists, website links to parts.. are greatly appreciated.. and possibly what order to do the mods in..
thanks again ya'll..

MPI Twins, efi live, lift pump, Trans, tierod sleeves and you'll have a low 12sec capable truck. Rob has ran 11.89 with a similiar set up.
Awesome.. I can definately see that as a good buildup project..
Thanks so much
