Yeah, great pics! Just a question....how much compression would you have to sacrifice to make this engine streetable and approximately how much horsepower would it have. Im assuming 1500hp doesnt come at 10psi and on 93 octane. Those are some insane numbers. Keep up the good work!

THIS MILL IS 7.2: 1, BOOST IS 35 PSI WITH LIQUID PROPANE INJECTION, INTAKE AIR TEMP IS NEAR FREEZING, WHEN I'M POURING THE FUEL/BOOST TO IT I'VE HAD A LAYER OF FROST BUILT UP ON THE TURBOS AND INTAKE AND HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH MOISTURE IN THE OIL

by the way, I drove this truck daily until I pulled it down for the frame up, drove like any other truck until I decided to stuff my foot THROUGH the firewall, NOTHING is better than the look on a rice drivers face when a 39.5 bogger accelerates to 120mph INSTANTLY beside their head, lets see them start off in 5th and ACCELERATE by letting up, traction was an issue at times!
