want to make a 1997 puller
i just bought a 1997 5 speed manuel i want to use to haul a 30,000 pound gooseneck. im wanting 500-750 hp range not exactly sure yet. ive already put a 120hp fuel plate in slid it all the way forward slid the housing all the way foward adjusted the star wheel and smoke screw, gauges, kdp. its a stock clutch but i want to convert it to a G56 6 speed so my questions are what more do i need for fuel? what size trubo, or twins? what motor parts do i need to replace such as vaulve springs, head, head gasket,ect....? what will it take to put the G56 in place of the nv4500? and what clutch should i order? thanks!

Well like they say beauty is in the eye of the beer holder. As for the compounds, it sounds like you havent purchased turbos yet so you might want to consider a kit from BD or II unless you are planning on doing all of the piping and what not yourself. You dont have to replace any engine parts if you dont want to but it wouldnt hurt to throw a GSK and some valve springs in it and bump the timing. If you plan on running a bigger single or the compound setup you should consider studs or an upgrade head bolt like mighty diesels.

the 5600 is longer than the 4500 so the drive shaft will need to be shortened, if you going from an auto you will need another input shaft in your t case will need to be 29 spline. as for the turbine on the primary I would go with the 73 and a 1.1 t6 spools fast makes a great primary for towing
