I love my BD exhaust brake, I'm curious if theres any way to increase the power of the exhaust brake such as adding stronger valve springs. My truck has the 60lb springs on it would upgrading to the Hamilton Cams valve springs help hold my truck back while going down a grade?

 

the reason you have to put heavy valve springs in is to keep from floating valves. you got that covered already.

 

So is there any way to increase the strength of the brake?

 

not that i know of

 

No 60# is the max limit, unfortunately.

 

Dang oh well, still love the brake

 

Downshifts. How's your clutch?

 

Im in need of a new clutch, with what im planning 13125-fek south bend clutch. Along with a set of sdx injectors 5x014s and a 60mm upgrade tto my Wh1c, with a timing bump to around 15*-16* along with a kdp fix when I do the timing. Just curious what kind of horsepower should I expect? I do tow but fairly rarely, just a boat and a 28ft camper. Basically going to be a fun daily driver

 

i think the 5x14s will be kinda hot with that 60mm turbo, with my set up in my sig i run about 5-700 cursing no load, i have the tractor its about 800, and if im doing 75-80+ on a grade with the tractor its about 1200 but those numbers are all post turbo

 

So what kind of HP are you looking at? and what is the HX40?

What kind of turbo would you recommend to run with the 5x014s?
