The big trucks with 300hp are pushing 1000ft lbs of torque.

No worries. I hauled my share of hay when I owned a cutting horse operation.I pulled 14 5X6 round bales for two years with my OBS..... Then whent out and bought a semi with a 350 cummins and 13 speed tranny... Now I can take 31 bales at a shot...

southerners with their light hay. LOL
i just baled a waterway, 5ft wide round baler, set the moniter to 72", spit one out, and weighed it, just cuz you guys had me curious.
simple grass weighed in at 1300 ish lbs. the hay field, that weighed in at about 1950 ish lbs. per bale.
keep your rpm down, and your travel speed up, and you will pack them tighter. total pita to have a stack of 50 loose saggy bales when it could be 40 tight ones.
sorry docbar. any further progress on your decision? and fwiw, if you cannot weld the greatest on stainless, make it out of simple steel, something thats cheap to fk up, and take it somewhere, and go make this.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a fuel bowl delete system that works with the Gen3? I've talked to a few vendors but they say their set up isn't compatible with the Gen3.
I figured that much...Kustomimp:
Thanks Robert. I'll give him a call this morning!! :toast:Give Marty's diesel a call. I ran his system with my Gen3. He has a full system on his truck with 400/400's and a gen3 with no issues.
I'm doodling right now.charles : the pic you showed of your truck loaded with hay, is exactly how i load mine. with one small exception.
you put two rows on top, i put one on top in the middle. you haul 14, i haul 11.
i usually only have to go no more than 20 miles though, i dont haul them around the country like your 100 miles.
Doc : this is from that other place, tarm had a pretty good write up. http://powerstrokenation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=63784&page=2&highlight=400+bucks+spend post 16.
i used that list, used some work discounts on parts, and got everything for about $275ish. thats everything from the pump forward, deleting the fuel bowl, and i used hose for everything instead of hard line.
keep in mind, thats a diy rr, so some of that you would not need, if you already have a rr. take his list, draw it out on paper, and see what you already have, and you can erase it off the list, and get whats left.
you can use different filters or bases or modify the list however.
I've got my built block (crowers, coated pistons, cam, headwork,etc.) and I'm going to 400/200's and basically copying Blowby's setup.hmmmmmm.
all i got to say about that,
is fk you and your rain.
my corn is thirsty.
without flipping back through several pages, how bout a recap of whats in it, whats goin in it, and what your goals are.
looking at it, your aiming for upper 500's low 600's? and be tow heavy friendly?

I'm wanting as much RWHP as I can get and still be tow friendly. I don't tow often, but when I do, it's usually 1,000 miles or more at a time.
The final build should be compounds with ???/GQSSB, 400/200's, Gen3 and SRP1 w/dual IPR's. Blowby hit 800 on fuel only with, I believe, 400/400's. I'm realistically looking for high 600's to low 700's. I want to keep all the pressures and torque in check as much as possible.
That's according to Pius and someone else. I can't remember who. Maybe Mike will pop in and clarify.When did mike hit 8 hundo on fuel? I thought heui 7.3 injectors were still at 700 corrected?
