Whats the highest horsepower VP44 powered truck there is??

 

Nitrous assited I believe has hit the 1k mark, common belief is the pump is limited to about 650 on how much fuel it flows, but I know of a truck the made 800 at the wheels, but did have water/meth. Personally I ignore nitrous numbers, just seem kinda half-assed to me, I like seeing engine built to run efficiently, than abused with that crap.

I believe last months edition of Diesel Power had a VP making around 850 on fuel only.

891 hp and 1,696 lb-ft, FUEL ONLY!!!

 

My only concern with that truck, is that after reading the article I started searching for info on the pump, and I found that the quality/customer service was questionable at best, numerous guys claiming multiple pump failures, and being next to impossible to get ahold of the guy, but did say they would make awsome power.

True, but when getting that much power from a vp44 longevity is sacrificed.

 

they are some high hp experiment type pumps floating around here in the sled pulling guys. power performance look good on a few trucks. i hear tell the price was very high

 

there used to be several trucks floating around 750-850 HP or so they claimed by using "The Monster" pumps.

 

i know when they use nitrous they look as good or better than the all fuel 1000 hp trucks.
