I dont know a whole lot about Powerstrokes so what do you mean its got a mechanical pump on it? Like a P pump or what cause i know they got a HUEI on em but i dont know what you mean by mechanical. -

its got an inline pump just like a p-pump but obviously a 8 cylinder one, my friend told me what they use but i cant remember what he said. all i know is they are some bad engines and they have ALOT of $$$$ in them. they change all the HEUI crap out to make the mechanical stuff work. -

Cool so could you make one street legal ish and build one to drive around in??? I have always wanted a 7.3 but i could never justify myself to buy one and get rid of my Cummins because it was so much easier to make the Cummins fast. I bet its just as easy to make a 7.3 fast you just have to know what to do. -

theye use a mechpump from a cat i believe... -

There was a feature article recently (I think it was in Diesel World) on Double Overtime. It runs a similar setup. I think the pump came off a CAT. They said the truck makes "well north of 1500 horsepower". It also said that there was almost as much money in the heads to get it all to work, as there was in the rest of the engine. -

I'm don't think the engine in Double Overtime is a 7.3 it is another V8. You can't tell me 7.3 can't go fast I saw one for sure running 10s last year at the diesel nationals. -

7.3s are great, you just got to have a unlimited budget. -

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the engine in Double Overtime started out as a 7.3. I'll have to look at the article again. I have the magazine in my toolbox at work. I looked at the article last night, and the injection pump they are using is a Scheid built "V pump" as they called it. It's P-type pump that came off of a 700 cubic inch International.
The 7.3 you saw running 10s was more than likely Zane Koch from Wide Open. If I remember right, he ran a 10.86 and was the first 7.3 in the 10s.

cool truck.....too bad i already posted pics of it and the engine........

STROKED OUT......

Stroked Out and Double Overtime are both running 7.3 liter ford powerstroke blocks.........they are using "big truck" mechanical pumps with custom built front drive systems..........Double Overtime uses a custom one piece main and block girdle that ties into the cylinder heads.........the cylinder heads are also highly modified factory 7.3 powerstroke heads..........they dont use a billet block like some of the cummins powered open class trucks do.........the motor was built by TFS in Indiana........ -
