No one has any major parts Trans wise to consider it a built Trans. You can add some clutches to it to help beef it up and swap the torque converter but other than that your Trans is basically stock

I don't always buy a 55k dollar truck
But when I do, I make sure it needs 3k dollar rods and a major overhaul to make 600 hp reliably
LOL great call Fomoco

Remind me how much it costs to make a non-6.4 reliable at 600 HP.:lookaround: Oh, wait.:doh: You wouldn't know from personal experience.:pointlaugh: Key word here is RELIABLE. How many tenths of a mile has your 6.0 driven without having to pop the hood at the 600+ hp level? :poke: Just sayin'

On another note, I'm really looking forward to the entire field of applicants from all brands accepted for the final vote. It's pretty cool to compare year-to-year just how much this industry improves in technology and capability.:pimp: I tell you what though, I sure hope if there's any fummins to vote on that it doesn't count for a ford vote.

Well north of 600 on fuel?

well when I say probably well north of...i'm hoping around 615-630. haven't put this setup on a track or dyno yet but just guessing by what others have with similar setups. 200 cc, a 63 over s480 and built trans.

some other dude dyno'd 668 with his 190's and compounds, couple others were 640ish with 205's and smaller compounds so just guessing.

now before I get JJ'd about this...i said probably and don't really care if it is or isn't. just adding my .02 you time slip nazi LOL
