Really a nice job Cliff. What muffler is Yvan using? It sounds nice.

I think that straight pipe up the back is it.

Happy coaching!

Nice work! People don't give the 8V-71TA enough credit. Detroit's last on highway 8V-71TA with 7G80 injectors got 400hp and 1200lb/ft torque.
My 8V-71 turbo (12.7 S60 turbo with waste gate) with 7G75 injectors and air to air intercooling gives me 375hp and 1125 lb/ft torque. And it really wakes up the 8V-71. Good Luck, TomC

If this engine wasn't A timed I would have went with something besides the N75 injectors too

A turbo really wakes up the 6-71's in the 4104. The plumbing part was really simple compared to the 8V-71's.
