Curtis Halverson (Diesel Performance Research) will be releasing the following within the next week, with exception of the new oil pump which is allready available.

High volume oil pump
Air to water intake cooler
Competition billet front mount gearset for dual CP3's (VERY COOL!!!)
7.3 Stroker Kit (To be released soon)
And a few other go fast goodies that will be released later this fall.

I will post pictures and details on these new products in the next day or so.:)

As well Curtis worked with Harland Sharp on a new billet rocker which is now available directly from Harland Sharp. This rocker has been redesigned to help with higher RPM circumstances. This IMO is a much needed proactive move to prevent carnage in high HP and high RPM motors. IIRC correctly the rocker now has a oiling journal and they have adressed the 50 thou side play in the stocker design.

Curtis' is just getting started I'm sure.

For those that didn't know, Curtis used to build BANKS stuff. He was nice enough to come down and walk us through his oil pump a couple months ago and when i had a problem... he had a rep at the shop in 3 hours. I am sure he can't do that for everybody, but i was fairly close.

Heck of a nice guy who stands behind his stuff, Curtis is gonna build some STUPID fast stuff.

Keith, hope all comes together for you in the new endeavor. Did you end up back halving Nasty?

Actually Curtis was GBE's head engine builder until he got sick and tired of Gale. :rolleyes:

As far as Nasty goes the only changes will be under the hood. ;)

I tried to get one of his high flow oil pumps for ~6 months via BMS, who works with Curtis on Dmax stuff. We gave up 3 weeks ago and put the engine together with a stock pump.

So unless the availability has dramatically changed in the last 3 weeks, I would list the availability as "low stock" at best.

But it's great to hear some more hot-rod parts are coming to market for our trucks! :rockon:

IIRC, he also did some more changes to them. Maybe you were just unlucky with your order time and caught him doing the changes.

those gear sets... they are for mounting two CP3.4s??? :D


Yup ;)

You can have any desired gear ratio you want as well depending on how fast you want to spin your motor. I personally haven't seen any issues yet with overdriving the CP3's but the option is there.

Do you mind giving a bit more of a description on the cp3 gear setup. Is it a second cp3 - driven from where? Mounted where? Thanks
