Plotting a big build

Doing some digging, I'd rather just build up my truck than buy another one. It'll be a while before I can get going on it, but I can line it up now as the performance market for the 7.3 is pretty much gonna stay the same.

So here goes:

Diesel Site Adrenaline HPOP (no brainer here, although I'd love if they came out with a streetable Pulse HPOP soon)
Diesel Site CPR fuel system (or CPR-X, can't decide need input here)
South Bend dual disk clutch with solid mass flywheel and upgraded clutch fork kit (tell me about dual disk vs single disk please)
Swamp's 200cc single shot injectors (or 250cc?)
ARP head studs (no brainer with such a teardown)
Billet push rods
Upgraded valve springs

Turbo-wise, I'm a little iffy, as there's a number I can choose from, but here's what I'm looking at now;
Swamp's custom S300 or BFH custom S400 with H2E mounting kit



It's gonna be used for street and towing, so goals are most power with lower EGTs and keep in mind I have a manual, so I'd love to be able to keep the turbo lit going up a grade.

Also, I'll be doing a 4 inch DP into a 6 or 7 inch stack.


I love how indecisive I am

Nice list, Im also doin a build in about 2 months. currently i'm overseas so i'm just waiting to get back home. I'm doin valve springs, pushrods, studs, H2E maybe WOP qssb turbo, Swamp's 250cc hybrids 100% nozzles, adrinaline, and regulated return with a custom duel pump setup. Also guys have been tellin me that Bean's is supposed to be coming out with an oil pump competing with the Stealth for much cheaper. or so they say. either way good luck with your build

I'm kinda leanin toward 250's but I don't know if I could run a turbo that would clean it up with my manual.

I do plan on throwing a bit of the Hypermax catalog at my motor for the internals.

I'm glad I have forged rods
