6.7 Nitrous

Is rods enough bullet proofing for say 700hp on these trucks, or is balancing/studs/head modifications needed to be reliable at those levels? I'd like to run a Danville Garrett 71mm 4094VNT on one of these trucks. There's just not much options for gating it.

I don't think anyone can answer that question. Not enough trucks are pushing the envelope.

There are more options for waste gates than you think. Rods with a balanced bottom end should be no problem. Studs would be smart while the motor is apart.

What are some of the options as far as using the factory EGR port? Won't it only relieve pressure from 1 bank of cylinders? I know H&S's headers, as well as Elites T4 pedestal all have gate ports, but what other options are there?

Use elites pedestal or run a gate on each manifold. Those are 2 very good options

If you're taking the time to put rods in an engine, I would hope you balance the recip assy. And I would do studs while you had it apart too

spray at least a 75hp shot on it. I've heard they fit well under that back seat and can be activated by an up-fitter switch..... Don't ask me how I know....
