Zane koch of Wide Open Performance is the fastest PSD so far. There are plenty of other HOT hot 7.3 around though. And more being built everyday with new tech and new ideas all the time. Gale Banks says its a dead platform. Just proves he's and idiot! Duramax....So easy Gale Banks can do it.....

That truck is called Double Overtime and it is more custom than not and when i mean custom its a 7.3 Block with custom heads which practically allow it to use dodge injectors with twin P pumps and some wicked nasty twin turbo's and last time i checked when he is runnin down the track pullin the sled he is blowin about 4 times more smoke out of his wastegate than my truck constantly lol.

Zane Koch of Wide open Performance Dyno'd 871 IIRC:
YouTube - WOP Race Truck makes 871RWHP!!! 7.3 Power Stroke
I believe Cale was over 900... but i think most of us know what happened to his engine...
Greg (aka Dockboy, don't know if he's on this site) made nearly 900 before ventilating his block and now runs a cummins in his ford.

well i still think of it as a powerstroke just because it is our block and displacement and sits in some of that good looking ford sheet metal.

Well, technically the new PSD's woudln't be psd's then if they are pizio fired as well not HEUI.

he built a custom injector setup from scratch.
It's one of the baddest trucks, IMO.
But as for a true 7.3 PSD, it techncially is not. It still is a 7.3 international setup.
Just, a bit custom. And creative, not just a banks tuner thrown on cause Durasmacks are easy to get power from.

All in all, it isn't dark side, its Ford at heart.
That is all we gotta remember. =)

From what I've read and heard (thanks tim1) you just cannot get big big power out of a PSD HEUI setup easily due to restrictions from the HEUI system.
