fellas, he may have built it in his garage but he bought the billet front cover, injector cups, etc to convert to the mech injection from wipe out. i talked to the guys at wipe out and its a VERY expensive conversion to mechanical injection. was getting serious on doing it to mine until i saw how much the front cover was, the roller rockers, the injector cups.... wow, its around a $10k swap just to get the parts to convert before buying the pump and 8.3? cummins injectors and doesn't include the bottom end to hold. its got arias pistons and crower rods i think and you know it's gotta have a big honkin main girdle worth $4k alone.. definitely a lot of money in that engine any way you look at it. haha

What are the advantages, outside of just making big power with a Navistar V8?

Swamps has a new billet cover and Girdle. Rumor has it they are building one with dual cp3's from a 6.4 and convert it all over to a CR with Injector sleeves.

Thats going to be silly.

This is not the only P Pump Powerstroke or Double Overtime there are others being built right now.

Even a 6.0 P Pump conversion in the works. It's gong to be sweet to see.

As for this show some videos of it pulling and starting.
