My jaw dropped when he said they're still running a stock crank, at 2200 horsepower. 7.3s barely make a fraction of that stock, that's absolutely mind blowing how over built they were.
They're forged crankshafts. As long as the motor is balanced well with a good damper it should be fine at any HP level
@@marinusdedreu3833 Not all levels of forging are the same though. Material composition, thickness of the part and its overall build quality play a big part in its ability to withstand so much horsepower and torque. It could have fallen apart at 1200 HP if it were a poorly made piece.
I guess poorly made isn't thr right way to say it. If it wasn't as well made it cluld have fallem apart at 1200 HP, but that would still be impressive considering 7.3s make like 180 HP stock
@@scmroman my 96 makes 225hp stock, the super dutys make 275. It's an industrial engine so yes the crank is very well made. that's why they last so long
@@marinusdedreu3833 Ive got mine and its making about 300 ish its a 97 and I love it
“Horsepower is a function of cubic dollars.”
Hp=F(X)^$$$ lmao
So is freedom and democracy
No truer words were ever spoken!
It's just unbelievable where they're taking these engine architectures - and even with the HEUI PowerStrokes, no one ever thought that fuel system could support 1000HP, yet you can buy parts out of a catalog that will get them there now! And, to think, all it took was enough people to just give enough of a damn to actually develop parts, instead of just pulling cheap Cummins out of junkyards(for better or for worse, the LS of the diesel world no doubt).
Nice to see some are still interested in pushing the limits too; when you can predict where you're going to crack the block, you must be doing something right lol. I've gotten to watch the Double Overtime truck run a few times, that's one bad SOB
Well said. It never ceases to amaze us what engine builders are capable of.
You definitely correct with everything you said, and yes the Cummins is definitely the LS of the diesel engines, you see them in pretty much everything. It's amazing how much power they making with the HEUI system nowadays, Jesse Warren making serious power with the 6.0,s.
2200 on a stock crank is mind blowing
They’re getting it figured out with them powerstrokes👍 I like it, gives them Cummins boys something to worry about.
Fuel mileage left the chat
I live 20 minutes from these guys, great group of people to do business with.
We appreciate the support 🤟🏼
Hell yeah let’s go power strokers
Monstrous.
I love the duel rear wheels that don't stick out
👍👍work of art....
We wanna see this thing rip! Cmon man
Wow did y’all see that connecting rod waving at us?? 😂😂
Powerstrokes are the best hands down either way!
Says nobody ever !!!
People who say this don’t actually own a diesel
@@tj4683 I drove a modified 7.3 from 2000 to 2010 and it had no major problems and was cheap to maintain. For the last three years, I've been driving a Bulletproofed 6.0 and have had zero problems even at 30 below.
@@MatthewC137 keyword there is bullet proofed. You shouldn’t have to bullet proof a motor for it to live. I’ll admit the 7.3 is a decent motor but the 6.0 and 6.4 are just garbage.
@@Braviary01 you're only half right and don't know the differences between those motors. The 6.4 is garbage, a throw away motor, but the 6.0 is easy to make reliable permanently. The motor itself is good and without bulletproofing they became much more reliable in the last 2 years of the 5 year production run.
I hope they’re still making/casting 7.3PSD blocks because there’s already a limited amount of them out there already as it is.
I think they are still making new 6.9/7.3idi & new 6.0 blocks, but I haven’t heard much abt the 7.3PSD.
I wish they made P-Pump kits for those that want to convert their stock 7.3 PSD from HEUI to a mechanical motor & still be in stock form for relatability, just not the HEUI.
They do sell a kit. Forget the name of the site bit it's like a 8 or $10,000 kit
@@KC-lg7tx hypermax
Hypermax makes a full p pump conversion kit, and hypermax makes Compact Graphite Iron blocks that are 60% stronger
Who would still be making idi blocks? They’re 30 plus years old
They make a kit. Like $20k for a basic kit.
There’s a 7.3 ps pulling truck called Double Overtime that done this long ago!
Hopefully they can design more displacement potential.
That head design is bad ass but there still missing one link to that design and that would be a 16 valve head instead 8 valves per head more valves more air and it’s possible I’ve had a head design that I thought about years ago just never had enough money to do it
Dude a forged piston with reinforced ring lands is revolutionary.
OTR engines use steel pistons. Kind of surprised they didn't go there instead.
@@Parents_of_Twins
Now days, since about 2005 they started monotherm pistons. Articulated before. I still build hipo diesels that only have cast, nickel inlays for many people. Debonding is a serious problem.
@@johncholmes643 Interesting. Debonding? Are you talking about the metals losing their adhesion to each other because of the extreme heat? Or are you saying that would be an issue with the steel pistons? Interesting either way. I'm interested in engines but that's not what I do for a living.
@@Parents_of_Twins i bet it makes a difference if your diesel is red lining at 1800 rpm or at 5 grand. Some Diesels run to 6 grand. At that point steel parts become a limiting factor.
@@uliwehner Really. Why? Weight?
I crotch my head when I hear someone say they got a 500hp 7.3 but I see this I’m like 🤯🤯
the injectors and p-pump would make a nice upgrade for a stock engine. anything to get rid of the computer and hydraulic/electric system
In fact when I was pulling a 39 foot travel trailer my truck and the trail together weighed 17,500 lb I was getting 19 miles a gallon round trip 368 mi from Chicago round trip
2200 hp...bruh that nuts
Stock crankshaft holding up to 2200hp? Wut
YES!!! WELL MADE ENGINES.
@@josefastboats5874 well made engine? The only thing stock on it is the crank. 7.3 struggle to make 400hp. The 6.7powerstroke is what i call a well made engine. 550hp bone stock and 2020+ use light weight steel piston from factory. The cummins is the superior engine holding up to 1000hp with only head studs. The LMM LML Duramax start to fall appart at around 650-700hp. I run Duramax’s cause i like the smooth power delivery. I like them all but calling the 7.3 a well made engine… sorry.
@@reminoel483 7.3s are very well made engines. Especially the obs 7.3s because they came with forged rods. The only reason they struggled to make good power was because the heui system sucks. Is the 12v better? Yes. Is the 7.3 also well made? Absolutely. What a clown ass thing to say.
@@reminoel483 I have a 96 F350 with a bigger turbo, larger injectors and heads studs. That thing makes a lot of power so I don’t get it when people say 7.3’s don’t make power. Stock pistons and rods. Those obs trucks can easily handle 650-700HP
@fomoco yeah I heard some of the 99s do I didnt know 2000 did too
nice
What about Archoil?
unreal
Why don’t they just go with hypermax compacted graphite iron block? 60% stronger than stock.
I was thinking the same thing with the pump. Hypermax has been selling those pumps for over a decade now that I know about.
@@Parents_of_Twins because they don't want to pump swap it.... That's their whole saying
@@marinusdedreu3833 Hmm guess I'm confused. Been a while since I watched that video so that might be why. I'm not seeing the difference between what they are doing and using the Hypermax pump, which is also a P-pump.
Just to show cummin they dont need a AM block to exceed 2k hp
Very impressive. Make a guy appreciate the Cummins
Why? It’s not like a cummins will make this kind of power stock?
@@masonh2538 um nothing makes this kind of power stock. But as the owner said when they were making 1400hp. The Cummins in the same 3.0 class were making 1600.
@@tbone707 thats a displacement and airflow issue.
@@masonh2538 you realize this engine isn't stock either. Cummins can build a lot more power without doing a lot of machine work..
@@dallasknight8620 costs about the same to get a 7.3ps to 500hp as it does a 12v Cummins
I'm looking at the intake manifold and scratching my head. V.E.D. is who I would contact to see if they could make something more efficient then that. Besides that? Oh I want to see how far that stock crank can go. 2,200 horsepower and a ton of torque is no joke for sure. I'm a Ford 7.3L diesel and 7.3L Godzilla gas engine lover.
Bro that gas engine is a joke
@@josefastboats5874 why?
The key is not believing the dozens of people who will tell you that it can't be done. It may not be wise and it may not work like you think but chances are it can be done. Unless you are talking about making antigravity boots from a pair of LaCrosse and a watch battery.
In fact my hydrogen generators made my engine run cooler I did that for a half a million miles it ran great. I don't pull trailers no more so now I work in a factory.
What happen with Ben miller’s double overtime truck?
I remember that from diesel power magazine years ago
It's sitting in a shed unfortunately last time I seen it
@@spencerwayt9847 why?
he's to busy with other things to get it back together
@@spencerwayt9847 thanks for explaining
They either have fat bank accounts or great sponsors. Sounds like they are getting the kinks worked out.
What about a cgi block ?
how about showcase bibiggest hp on heui injector
I’d like to have this in my truck if I had the money I’d pay them to work on it
You can make most anything work with enough money
Right, money just makes stuff magically work - not all the time and effort and testing and problem solving...
@@RyTrapp0 well of course you aren't going to get anywhere if you don't know what you are doing. My point is that it's a lot more expensive to build something that is engineered in a way that makes it difficult to make power
@@basketballcory2 Money doesn't hurt any, but as you and @RyTrapp0 pointed out, you still have to make it work at the end of the day!
I would say money solves problems that have already been solved, but if they are new problems that others haven't encountered then it becomes brainpower, trial and error, sweat and money .
That is a 7.3 like I am Elvis.
All that to run with a 6 cyl. Cummins?
How much horsepower does the same class cummins have?
At what point is this no longer a powerstroke?
Is a bullet block LS with boost and NOS still an LS? Yep
Ok I'm confused because I'm a big ford guy and in 1981 ford used the Navistar 7.3 IDI not the 7.3 power stroke which didn't come around until 1994-2002
Just the truck the engine is in is from 1981, not the engine itself.
Pretty much the only thing left to the word power stroke is the main bolt pattern and the displacement
About 2200 horsepower I could add another 350 horsepower to put it easy with hydrogen generators.
Hahah it took all that for a stroker just to try to keep with a cummins haha but this is a awesome build !!!
Found the cummins fan boy.....
@@ks_1111 remover is girl (probably boi) says he is a one pump Cummins chump
I know how to get extra 350 horsepower more out of that engine too hydrogen oxygen generators they will add another 350 horsepower or more because I've done it before.
Ain’t no Cummins making 2200hp on stock crank.
Dont get me wrong, this thing is cool but, what still makes it a 7.3L Powerstroke? Every single piece except the crank is custom. Turbo, Intake, Heads, Injectors, Block, Pistons, Rods... so if it is just in a Ford truck its a Powerstroke? I mean call it what it is, a loosely based on the 7.3 architecture full custom pulling truck. That feels better.
Like many builds, it started with much more 7.3 Powerstroke parts and pieces than it currently has today. That transformation took many years. But it does still use 7.3 architecture, and the billet block coming soon will also be 7.3 architecture. We understand your point though.
Same reason why a 2 speed transmission for a drag rail is still a "Powerglide", same reason a 2000hp Twin Turbo engine is still a "big block Chevy"
They also said it was a stock block
I wanna do a crazy 7.3l build but I'd rather have a cummins hands down even if everyone is I still like the cummins power
Cummins is the LS I’ve the diesel world. Everyone builds one cause they’re cheap but that also makes them boring.
@@masonh2538 makes it easier and cheaper to get the parts for em
These things barely made enough horsepower to run a lawnmower. What black magic did you use???
You have to throw some money at it
Lol no kidding!!!
Just go Cummins
All that time an money into a Ford. What a shame. 6 in a row is the way to go.
You cummins fan boys sure are special
@@ks_1111 not special ..., just smart...
@@elroyelblander6277 nope, they're about as smart as an inbred mule
@@ks_1111 😆😆😆... Calm down Karl
@@ks_1111 lol...not all of cummins guys are like you say, but I have as many 7.3l powerstrokes as I do cummins.
Just buy a tuned cummins and take the rest of your money and buy a house

Wow ran it for like a minute didn't even rev it
