Message: [QUOTE="TyCorr, post: 676529, member: 1451"] Why is everybody concerned with high hp? You can only really use 400. Thats for short periods. If you put.400 through the driveline sustained, you'll melt the friggin rearend out of it, probably boil the trans out, and everything will get toasty. Unless of course you dont use it then you can run 500+ through it and probably break stuff once in a while. After hearing about people twisting the guts out of their bts in a daily driver with 550 hp, I kinda lost interest. Maybe I misunderstood, but are you guys actually using your trucks? Or just building a stoplight racer? If you wanna race, buy a different truck with cr injection. 7.3 is a worktruck. 38r and some single shots or small hybrids and go towing. Having sat down and tallied up.what it would.take to have a 550hp truck its not.really worth it. Again, unless your truck is a toy. To reiterate also, if your goal is to play, there are many other.choices. A 6.4 or even 6L. Now, you COULD build a kickass truck with a 7.3. Get a later model cc/lb lariat or swap in some.kr seats. Then billet rods, fire-rings, and maybe a stg1 cam and headwork. Throw some.headers, some compounds, and a billet trans behind it. Build coolers for the diffs, the fuel, upgrade the one.for.the trans. Basically bulletproof and engineer cooling for everything. Have a higher hp travel/towrig/camper hauler and hit the road. Just seems like you could do that too.with a 6.4 with intake, exhaust, and tunes. And it would probably be.more reliable too. [/QUOTE]
