855 cu.in. motor making 550 hp and a 359 cu.in. motor making over 950 have some different fueling requirement. N-14s are making fuel power up to 2,600, right now I'm going up to 3,500.
I see what you are thinking though.

Just on a side note for Airdog...
At 750 wheel the pump maintains almost 30 psi. Perfect... Until I turn it up to 950 wheel (4 psi). These numbers are on fuel with no bottle.

a 150 pump supported me at 780 hp this weekend and I had more but I ate my clutch alive, I did have to use pressure to keep R.P up but I don't think lift pump inadequacy was the problem, at these levels you have to use some rail increase to keep up. Jay

It seems that Charlie at Airdog has on open ear to this problem and has a new product for me to try when it is ready. Unfortunately it won't be ready for several weeks, but that is out of Airdogs hands. It'll be interesting to see, none the less.

The 250 you speak of is only 8 psi. The new system has more fuel. Hopefully it can take care of you.

I hope so. It sounds promising from the flow numbers that I've been told about. I have a lot more fuel to add to my truck and I'll need something to move it. As you can see in the video, the truck has the air supply to support more fuel. My EGTs during the run were only at 1,200*.

The truck is out in Riverdale now. It'll be getting ready to change some other stuff out on it. Then it is getting a cage. In November, I'm actually heading out to join him.

Yes the new system flows some big fuel! We can for sure work something out with you on it that will help to cure things with you. That is a very sweet truck. I believe we are both in touch with a person here in Missouri you speak with. I listen very much to what he has to say and I know he is familiar with your application. He has taught me alot. We will get you all fixed up.
