Visit Bigbaddodge.com for some video of his pulls. Most of the runs were well over 5K.. Great interior vids..

Go to the 2009 Vids and there is a helmet cam vid..

A buddy of mine used to have a P-pumped 24valve, and while doing a burnout, had the factory tach wrapped around to right under the "0"! Didn't blow, he drove the truck for another 1-2yrs, and sold it. With a properly built p-pump, 5000rpms isn't a problem, the guy that works on my truck showed me one that would go to 7000, but I believe it would start to defuel at 6something

I have no idea where a video of an 11,000 RPM cummins video would be, i'm doubting it has happened due to the fact that someone with that type of machine would want the whole world to know about it i think

well i heard al gore invented the internet(on a different thread). I would like to see just some sort of evidence or anything on a cummins running some high rpms. I just asked a guy with a sick drag truck at nationals and he said most only have a 4k or limit the revs to 5k.

I go down the track at just under 6K and I am mildly tuned, the mods out East travel down the track around 7K.
