dyoung14 curious these rigs are they streetable, and what you are wanting to build, are you planning to keep it a driver or a full blown sled rig or race rig it seems to me that the numbers that they are putting out they will be useless for day to day use.

If you guys dyoung14 are set on a good electric pump check out the fuel preporater or fass system (same thing just a family squabble). I can't vouch for the ford application but can for the cummins dodge as well as big cam and n14 and cat engines.

Dyoung14, thanks or clearing that up for me and good luck hopefully you are successful in building the monster of your dreams from your 6.9..Have you had it on a dyno yet?? What kind of valve springs and rockers are you leaning toward??
I remember seeing something about a 70's ford with an IDI and 1000hp at a drag strip, was from an old HOT-ROD mag or something......Am I talking out my *** here Or do any of you guys know of the white ford p/u with cloud of diesel smoke erupting from the stack that I speak of......I couldn't find the link.
The way my memory serves me It was probably a volvo with 100hp during the 90's.

im not looking for 1000+ hp
Im looking to pass the 300hp mark that it seems no one can pass for some reasin, im going to try to build a fairly streetable engine, so twin compound turbos is probly going to be that option for fast spool along with high boost up top, i would like to see 450 500 hp but i may be over shooting

I have a picture for you.
That used to be a street driven Power Stroke, running somewhere around 105 pounds of boost when it blew.

That truck belongs to the son of the owner of BTS transmissions.
As the story goes, BTS transmissions are E4OD transmissions he builds, and then dares you to break them.
That was a 96 Stroke engine, 105 pounds of boost making north of 900 HP on fuel only.
Transmission was fine, engine not so fine.
Since the transmission was bolted to the engine, I have to wonder how the case survived when the engine block self destructed.
Maybe the transmission internals were OK and the case was not so fine.
Also noted up in the Stroke forum, the crank and connecting rods look just fine.
Star also brings up an excellent point about high RPM's, consider where your feet are in relation to where the clutch is as you over rev the engine.
Given the weight of the flywheel, clutch and pressure plate, the aluminum bell housing and floor boards won't even slow them down if it lets loose.
