Mega Horsepower Mega Cab - 1,200hp Daily Driver | Power Driven Diesel

[@kennethschlabach]

Awesome truck! Getting a lot of part combinations right, equal a powerful, reliable daily!

[@BrandonBigB956]

I went from a built F150 Ecoboost to a 6.7 Cummins. I love towing with the Cummins over the Powerstrokes I have owned in the past. The Cummins just likes to get down and grunt where the V8s want RPM when towing.

[@garrettbeagles4498]

Love the truck see you around town driving it and not even Smokey love it keep up the videos 👍🤘

[@pddofficial]

Thanks Garrett!

[@woos31]

That's just a little rowdy for a daily and tow rig! Who could ask for any different?!

[@insomniahobbies]

I was about to ask if you lowered the truck, then I remembered you are 9 feet tall.

[@pddofficial]

We did reverse level it! Lol

[@jasonbaragar3559]

Love watching your videos Todd! I am just wondering if you have a full build sheet or could do a full breakdown on your daily truck ie trans and mods for best day to day towing and use include cooling lock up converter and also if you ever consider meth or any other cooling mods in the real heat of day to day use thanks again for always being straight to the facts.

[@pddofficial]

I am going to do a video way more in depth when I get the rail issue sorted out.

Looks like Todd takes the title of highest horsepower daily at PDD! I love it guys, keep up the good work

[@pddofficial]

You know it!

[@buckwildmotorsports]

@@pddofficial once I get my old race tractor back together, I want to set up a time with you guys to make the drive from grand junction and come run it on your dyno!

[@pddofficial]

Sounds great!

[@glennshoemaker5724]

I have a 07.5 ram 2500 4x4 6.7 cummins.. wish I could get them to test out the truck and do the free double the hp check out on it .

[@RiggyRonnie]

Very clean sleeper build, with that much power it’d be a menace on the streets. It’d be interesting to see how this performs against say a TRX or other tuned diesels.

[@pddofficial]

That would be a fun video we will have to see if we can find a TRX

[@dixiemae5042]

Second from Idaho

[@73cjproject]

That's an awesome set up! Definitely a fun truck that you can still dial back and hook to the camper or gooseneck and put in some work. Great truck for sure!

[@pddofficial]

For sure! Except the dailed back tow tune still makes 1000 HP!

[@bcbloc02]

Would have been cool to see the exhaust during the dyno pull. 😎 2400ft-lbs is for real but 3000ft lbs is the magic number. 🥰

[@pddofficial]

3000 lbs on this block would be a repeat of my UCC dyno explosion!

[@bcbloc02]

@@pddofficial Yeah you are likely right. LOL Better keep it where it is at. Those numbers are still huge for a stock wet block. I have a 2020CGI block I am hoping to lean on a bit but don't expect anywhere close to these numbers.

[@pddofficial]

Let us know how well the CGI blocks holds power, it'll be interesting to see how much they will hold.

Lol! Hey everyone complains I break everything! This thing is like my longest running truck. I'm going to leave good enough alone.... for at least another week

That's amazing, could you give a complete built break down on this unit?

Going to do a in depth video once my rail issues are figured out.

[@chequinelhillery5428]

Did you ever upload the in-depth video

[@deadlift4life1]

Cool daily driver. But you didn't cover LP turbo. How big is this gt55 ?😀 I mean inducer wise. Can you explain wg on this setup. I see some external wastegate. Is the iwg of he351 welded? Are you running 2 stock cp3?

[@pddofficial]

Big turbo is a GTX55 106mm w/1.0AR T6 housing. Wastegate is 45mm Turbo Smart mounted to the Steed Speed T3 manifold and fed into the hot pipe just before the GTX55 inlet. The small turbo is a 67/67 HE351cw based turbo with a spring gate that opens based on drive pressure. High pressure pumps are a 12mm CP3, and a hurt stock Duramax pump.

[@deadlift4life1]

Thank's a lot for such comprehensive answer. You have one duramax part and it can't keep up with cummins power 🤣 just kidding I'm waiting for that 3k no spray from godfather

[@LMDiesel]

Ive always been a fan of Tod's truck. That much power in a daily driver is crazy!

[@pddofficial]

It's way more fun than it was at the mid 900 HP level with the towing compound turbo setup.

[@jackburton5483]

And I thought my ‘05 with a straight pipe and a Smarty Jr was saucy Lolol 😂

[@mikeanglim8093]

You guys are the Kings of 12v ! Make the drive to Ohio and let the 24v Kings mess with it. No shade. Big fan of Firepunk and PDD

[@pddofficial]

No way dude! Half the fun is building it! Lol. Honestly playing with the tuning and building this thing has been a blast. Always fun to increase your knowledge base.

[@stiffdrinkmime366]

"sleeper" might be a stretch at this point... Also, what's the big turbo? Did I miss it?

[@pddofficial]

106mm garrett gtx55 gen2

[@jeremysimmons5127]

Awesome daily! Whats a guesstimate on cost to get a similar stock tru ck to where yours is now? Parts and shop labor included?

[@pddofficial]

Between 65-70k roughly

[@kalebvidz173]

I love how he’s acting like it casual to daily a 1200hp Cummins 😂

[@Parents_of_Twins]

I love the Ram Mega Cab. Wish I had gotten a 4wd instead of 2wd but outside of that we love ours. I'm impressed with ours which is pretty much stock. I run an economy tune on it and it's a beast. I'd have to have a traffic lawyer on retainer if I had 1200hp. Seriously part of the reason I haven't added any mods, that and the transmission. Even stock I pulled a IH TD-6 on a triple behind it and had no problems keeping up with traffic. Going to be picking up a Massey 2200 forklift pretty soon on the same trailer. Bit of a longer drive this time though. The dozer was only 200 or so miles away the forklift is 750. Transmission is all I really worry about though.

[@pddofficial]

Safe travels.

[@stirlingmoore]

@@pddofficial is it just the injectors that allow it to run so clean or is it also running lean .......why do truck pull trucks and deisel dragsters roll coal like they do ,which i happen to like probably the most about diesels but some people say the blacker the richer which can cause problems like build-up and other issues just figure yall would have the best answers love yalls videos

[@korn111685]

I’ll ship you my truck with 550,000 miles and make it lay down that power. That would be a riot.

[@pddofficial]

You've gotta really love your truck to put enough parts in the engine and drivetrain to reliably produce 1200+ HP, but anything is possible!

How do we get to a W250 or W350 1000hp daily driver? I’m ready.

[@jamesmyers3773]

That is one sweet ride!

[@Toxicwastesu]

So 1200rwhp equals rolling burnouts, got it

[@briansmithson6901]

Where your trans cool located ?

[@pddofficial]

Remote mounted under the bed of the truck is a common place for aftermarket transmission coolers.

[@tacticalhomestead]

what sort of magic has been done to the transmission to put down 1200hp and 2400tq reliably? love the shifter by the way.

[@pddofficial]

It's one of our standard 1000 HP rated 48re transmissions with fat input and output shaft upgrades. Any transmission behind a truck this heavy with this much power is going to require regular maintenance at shorter intervals: filter change twice per year, 2nd gear band adjustment twice per year, fluid change once per year, full time transmission line pressure gauge to keep an eye on line pressure. Don't beat on it if line pressure is below 185 psi or so. Also need to service the rear diff once a year, and rear u-joints every other year unless you build a custom larger joint drive shaft. The rolling burnouts are really hard on tires, but even if you keep burnouts to a minimum, big power trucks wear out tires twice as fast.

[@tacticalhomestead]

@Power Driven Diesel oh ok makes sense. do you sell or know of a company that offers a a518 to 47rh conversion kit by chance or some way to get a lock up converter in my 1992 w250.

[@bryanford1139]

[@pddofficial]

Thanks Mike!

[@noppa82]

Well dunno.. Diesel is 8dol/gallon here + registered as a truck so max speed of 50mph/h for low taxes, if registered to normal vehicle it is gonna cost like 2000dol/year extra... so no Diesels here anymore :D

[@pddofficial]

That sucks!

[@Ashroyer86]

Let's talk about trans mods to handle all that.

[@pddofficial]

Extensive! This trans is built stout for sure

[@jedpratte]

Set up reminds me of my old daily. 04.5 CR girdle, 12v rods arp bolts, mahle coated and cut pistons, 188/220 cam push rods. Had some 150% overs with 12mm cp3 and s363/s483. Years ago when that truck was togther it always shocked people how rowdy a mild looking single cp3 truck with a modest manifold charger would do. Rods where always the worry some parts lol. As i recall it was on smarty UDC tuning and on big tune would put down little over 1k hp as well.

[@pddofficial]

Nice sound like it was a fun setup

[@josephramus311]

[@michaeltrue1143]

I love stainless diesel manifold myself

[@pddofficial]

They seem to work well, they just aren't as common out here in the West.

[@ChannelZeroOne]

Why would someone need a fluid damper? Don't see a whole lot talk about it other than its for vibration.

[@pddofficial]

Bearing wear. Really helps when the power goes up!

[@ChannelZeroOne]

@@pddofficial Do you have any examples of where someone should had this part? There are somethings that are just bling like shinny belt pulleys and such.

[@dilsher12]

​@@ChannelZeroOne A quality damper is far from being a bling part , it definitely helps especially on high horsepower builds .I think inline 6s especially with a long crank have more torsional vibrations . It's pretty common to see bearing wear in high horsepower 2jz engines from using the stock dampers. I have personally seen stock pulleys come apart and cause mayhem . When you have thousands invested in an engine a few hundred is no big deal .

[@pddofficial]

The other reason many higher powered trucks get the fluid dampr is SFI rules at the drag strip require it once you surpass 11.99 quarter mile times. On the 12v trucks, once they start to turn past 3500 rpm for any length of time, the stock dampener fails and comes loose. So the provision for dowels, better fasteners on the full power kit, and failed stock dampener are all factors on the older trucks.

[@mathewb5044]

Are you running dual fuelers??

[@pddofficial]

Yes a 12mm and stock

[@kylelawrence3218]

I like PDD's stuff and as a company, but this video is confusing. There's a lot of what Todd says that doesn't make sense based on what is shown in the video.

[@pddofficial]

The idea of the video was to show some of the parts we use on our personal trucks, to add credibility to Fluid Dampr, Steed, DDP, AirDog, etc.

[@bandabanderos]

What we’re the turbo sizes again? Stock head?

[@pddofficial]
