I am over 600 on my daily driver (in sig) on diesel only. Fun to drive, plenty of passing power too! I think you will need studs and o-rings or fire rings, and a cam. By the way I am running an SO pump, and at the last dyno event I went to, a truck similar to mine but with a Dragon flow pump and lots of head work only put down an extra 15 HP more than mine.

I agree the so pump will take you where you want to go. mishkaya whats your overall hp in your truck? I am thinking of trying some mach's and was curious. I don't have a cam but run twins also and an edge drag comp.
