I think it's definately a cost vs return thing. There are so many other places on a 7.3 to spend money first. I can tell you that if I ever have the heads off mine they will be getting a port job.

Congrats on the numbers, great for sure to still see people pushing it with the 7.3
*Barely
And barely where? That power level?

That's absolutely true. The right combination of parts matters immensly. I don't have anything Swamps on my truck either, but my next upgrade probably will be. The next step for me is a set of their heads and cam. I get my turbo and fuel delivery systems from Irate, my injectors from Unlimited, oil from Dieselsite or Stealth for bigger needs, and my tuning from Gearhead. It will always be that way. But the heads are something nobody else is doing yet. I'm not mad about it either. That's a hell of a place to get em from for sure.

Because then you're screwed with fresh unseasoned stock gaskets. You will be forced to do firerings if you want to push any respectable amount of power.
That engine in a 7400 pound truck would run an 11.2. Anything lighter you would be in the high tens on fuel only that would make it the fastest fuel only 7.3 "truck" according to the thread.

Crank hp vs rwhp my friend.

Are we figuring 750 to the wheels then? (correcting for driveline loss)
Is that about right?
Is that about right?
I know that that's why I used the hp calculator and that factors in the driveline loss

The 932 engine dyno hp was made with a 80mm/3.15" turbo....not a 66mm/2.6" turbo right?

And it also takes more than just dyno hp to run a good time. My truck should run low 12s according to dyno and weight. But I can't hit 12s cause of transmission set up, turbo spool time, etc

Doesn't need to be fixed. It's just you have to take everything into calculation. That calculator is for perfect conditions. Peak hp at peak
Shift points. It's hard to calculate things like this. If I use my time when my ipr nut fell off, and stalled, started back up and rolled into it, 21.xx at 107mph.. It would say 130ish whp. But if I say my actual hp and weight to an et , it would be 12.5ish

Swiper no swiping!!! LOL Sorry. Facebook thing.
The problem is people don't necessarily think about traction, spool, trans slippage, weight, etc. You need all the moving parts working right to get a good number. In my experience the HP calculator on this site is very accurate. I trust it more than some of these wild dyno claims that we hear occasionally. Like the 550hp on stage 2's and a 38r we all read about in Diesel Power a while back. That was a good one.

Oh come now. No Limits is a subsidiary of the Beans corp. You're not calling the badger king a joke are you?

First of all..No we are not. We have a great relationship with Ryan and his team but we are not affiliated with them. 2 totally seperate companies.
You have some kind of issue with us? It seems like you like to jab us when you can, which is your right to do. I'm just trying to figure it out to see if I can correct some past bad experience you may have had with us.
Let me know..feel free to pm or call me if need be.
Swamps....
Sorry for the derail. Great job with the motor. Love seeing the 7.3 churn big hp.
