yea i read that a few weeks ago, very cool article. it's funny though they've now switched to an Airdog fuel pump

He pushed it to 149mph yesterday, dunno what he ran today. That's about 480rwhp out of a 6.5 based on the frontal area and mph.

News is they hit 153 today and are headed home.

Pretty dang fast for a 6.5, figure 500rwhp.

Thats pretty cool.

How are they making that much out of a 6.5 with stock rods, pistons, and CR? They say the fuel injection pump is stock too??????
