I decided that 60 hp nozzles are all that are going in for now. I do tow with this truck from time to time and this is my work truck per say.LOL

I understand your reasoning on choosing 60 HPs (you need useable street/towing power), but with all the necessary supporting mods (dual fuelers, turbos, ported mannies, etc), what is the highest HP, 60HPs are capable of producing?

I think me and Corsili both did 800 on them a few years ago. For me it was 4 years ago.

I am really not out to set any records here, nor could I with this setup, but just want a strong, fun, and driveable truck. I do know that you could gain some more power by steping up charger size with the 60's like Mike is stating above. That would get you over the 800 hp mark and be very clean.

Exactly. That is why I have been interested in this build since the beginning. I was just curious as to what the full potential of 60s would be.

In reality, there's a lot of fuel available with 60s... More power than most need, really. Andy Parker's truck had 60s and tow powers at the diesel power challenge a couple years ago and it made 850ish (on spray) and backed it up with a 12.0 with a passenger at bandimere.

Thanks. I was paying so close attention to Shone's truck, I forgot that he was running 60s (I had it in my head that he was running 85s).

Come on up and check it out. It's going to be sweet I think. Ya why not just do it once the way I would be happy with it. That's the way I look at it.
