Heads are stock. Still got the cups too
I just hand ported mine put an angle on all the ports and valve springs screw In cups that's it

I'm not sure what hp and boost pressure has to do with atomization of water/meth. I thought it has more to do with pump/line pressure and nozzle size/design but what do I know. I think Snow sells multiple pumps with different pressures etc. I'm not saying you need to buy a Snow kit. All I know is from personal experience the Snow MPG Max kit worked great in my application. It was close to a stock truck so I could see why it would help me better than a high hp truck but I'm sure it would help. If your problem is high EGTs and water/meth helps than I would call that fixing it. JMOPWho suggested a snow w/m injection? Lol really. Its not worth its weight in scrap iron. The snow pump is not near enough pump to properly atomize water a 1000hp truck pushing 75 psi of boost. I believe a water injection would be beneficial, but you would need a set up like a lot of puller use that uses a good pump not some atv sprayer pump. Also water injection is just covering up a problem that is still there, its not a fix.
I hate to say it brian but i believe it to be a combination of stock parts at play. stock exhaust manis/up pipes, stock intercooler, stock cam, stock heads. I dont see changing just one of these parts dramatically dropping EGTs, only a combo of them.

6488 cam, springs and some port and polish work along with manifolds and uppipes and an intercooler would keep you closer to 1600-1800* egt depending on the timing and duration you're running. You'll drop some boost pressure along with drive pressure and make the same if not more powa too! I assume you've already got a solid 3" Y-bridge.
Water meth is a bandaid waiting to pull free at Bri's performance level
Your truck sounds awesome man:hug:
lol I was thinking the same thing. I'm sure it would help but to put a number on it is impossible.How do you know that would get him down to 1600*?

He's running 1000hp on stock heads, cam, manifolds/pipes and intercooler
Who does that? For that alone Brian deserves his own performance badge of accomplishment
I have been able to peg a 1600* pyrometer on our 3.0 truck in less than w seconds every since 2010, I have a Precision 2400hp air to water intercooler all this time and have had 5-6 different turbos. Last year I built equal length 2" primary headers with merge collectors. It still pegs a 1600* guage at the snap of my fingers under load. And I purchased 400% Exergy injectors to reduce pulse width, and my boost is 60-63 psi on current setup with less than that in drive pressure...
I honestly think an intercooler would be the biggest benefit, but then you will be able to add another 100us and make more power and temp will go up again. I think it's the nature of the beast(big single) without water or methanol injection to reduce it. Extra fuel will cool it off also. We were suffering rail pressure, so I had to keep pulse width low and we ran leaner and hotter...
X2, listen to this guy
Either live with the heat or twin it...
I have a stock Y bridge.
Many people did that before me, I don't deserve anything other than to smile.
First thing I will be doing is an intercooler, but that wont be till after the summer. I'll just turn it down and enjoy it like I want to. I don't need to keep hurting the truck because I like going fast, that's childish. I kept saying all I wanted was 10.99 and 850rwhp, and I exceeded those greatly. I think I'll do the easier route and call it a day.
Here's what is stock:
pistons (cut .015 and delipped)
Heads (has Hamilton springs)
Pushrods
cam
manifolds/uppipes
intercooler
trans shafts
Factory lockup, no lockup box
flexplate/balancer

That's awesome! Very similar to my truck. How much nitrous did you have to pour to her to get her in the 10s?
