I like the idea of the "Hybrid Powerstroke" you take the strengths of two engines and combine them into one and you just created one bad ass/slightly scary beast!
400hp easy. Heck, the 2009 6.4l made 350hp & 650 ft-lb stock(Answers.com - How much horsepower does a 2009 powerstroke have), and that's with less displacement and a lot of emissions crap strangeling it. And this project uses the 6.4l injectors, fuel rails, and HPFPs. The 6.7 makes 400hp from the factory now.
I would imagine 600-70hp and still have street manners so smooth that grandma could drive it. On a dedicated pulling truck? 1000 wouldn't be too far out of line with supporting air flow.
Ok, I know its just a joke, but I have to ask. Other than poking fun at dodge guys, why on earth would you want to put a 7.3l in a dodge truck!??! Their engine is the only thing remotely decent on them!! That would be making fun of the 7.3 to stick it in there! I would actually feel sorry for the motor! :hehe:
i really want to see this offered as kit or something. Im slowly building my truck to the plus 550 mark and im just waiting to see how long it will hold up as a dd and race truck (sumwhat race truck compared to others on here). But as soon as she does let go, if she does, I would love to do a twin turbo common rail 7.3l. As i was planning on doing a twin set up common rail or not
Swamps has to finish all the tuning first. this project is over 2 years old, so theres no reason to rush things. Once it's running good and doing everything Jon ask's it to do, it'll housed in my race truck. I doubt much daily driving will be done, but it will be ran on the street. It will however, be tested heavily on the drag strip. Were going to go as fast as we possibly can, I don't think were going to be dissapointed
Every time I check this thread I get pictures of HRT's motor with this injection system hooked to the sled...... I need to try and rearrange some funds.
Ben Miller doesn't have 4v heads. The fuel is the requirement we haven't yet met with the Heui. The mech 7.3's don't have power issues of any kind.
